2009 Nederburg Auction Beaumont Hope Marguerite (750ml) x 2 bottles - Provenance: Restaurant Mosaic Wine Cellar Collection
Beaumont began when Jayne and her late husband, Raoul, liberated themselves from the co-operative system in 1994 and refurbished the old farm at Compagnes Drift, an outpost for the Dutch East India Company in the 18th Century. Today, the cellar is under the tenure of their son, Sebastian. Hope Marguerite (named after Sebastian’s grandmother) is considered the estate’s flagship white wine; first released in 1996 it continues to be adorned with Platter stars! Only fruit selected from the oldest Beaumont Chenin vineyards is used for this wine. 100% barrel fermented in 400 liter French oak using only natural yeasts. No malolactic fermentation keeps the freshness. This wine remained on its gross lees for 10 months with regular batonage. It is unrefined and only given a light filtration prior to bottling. A good food wine that promises ageing ability. The Beaumont Hope Marguerite is a delicious, opulent and well balanced barrel fermented Chenin Blanc. Platter Guide 5*
