Peter Bayly III 2013
The Peter Bayly III, a blend of three Portuguese grape varieties - Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca & Souzao was borne from a spark of curiosity and the fact that no one had tried to blend these varieties together as a table wine in South Africa yet. The III is special due to the fact that our vineyard is located high up in the foot hills of the Swartberg and planted on shale with very little top soil, the vines struggle their way through to find water nutrients. Our unique location allows for a long slow ripening season, resulting in concentrated fruit and an elegant wine with low alcohol, good acidity, superb structure, great for accompanying hearty dishes and most importantly, a good glass to enjoy and share with friends, family or passers-by.Peter Bayly's III 2013 is our newest release.

This dry Cape White Port is a blend of the 2010 and 2011 vintages and a small portion of the 2008/2009 blend added in, produced from 100% Chenin Blanc grown in the deep red fertile soils of the Calitzdorp valley. Only 1800 bottles were produced, using artisanal vinification techniques - such as the use of lagares, manual pigeage and maturation in seasoned barrique.
A shy bouquet of roast almond, crushed oats and hints of orange blossom and lemon rind, unfolds into an ethereal, complex and lengthy palate. Peach pip, dried apricot, Seville marmalade, roast almonds and hints of spice taunt the senses, while the Port ends with a characteristically dry finish.
The Bayly’s Cape White Port is best served well chilled, and can be paired with a myriad of dishes, such Moroccan lamb tajine with saffron infused rice; Kingklip wrapped in Proscuitto served with baby potato and watercress salad; slow roasted organic chicken with roast potatoes, green beans and vine-roasted tomatoes or a sumptuous Canard a l’Orange. Alternatively serve well-chilled with a selection of fine cheeses, olives, dried tomatoes, cured meats and farm style bread.

Peter Bayly Cape Vintage
LBV or Late Bottled Vintage is the perfect combination of the power & prowess of a Vintage “Port”, but with the immediate accessibility and drinkability that only results from an extended maturation in old oak barrels. An inky black elixir with brick red edge, this wine greets one with a melange of bright mulling spice, brandied cherry, prune, molasses and fynbos aromas. The palate is lusciously smooth with gentle warming spirit, layers of black hedgerow fruits, kirsch, Wilson’s toffee, allspice, hints of caramel and toasted almond. An ideal winter warmer, but also a perfect accompaniment to roast lamb or pork, Moroccan lamb tagine, aromatic Cape Malay dishes & fine charcuterie. Alternatively, enjoy with mature hard cheeses, an assortment of nuts, decadent dark chocolate desserts or fine coffee. Analysis Alcohol Vol% 18.5 R/S 91 T/A 5.3 pH 3.75 |
