WINE DESCRIPTION
Vincent Careme Terre Brûlée 'Le Blanc' is a premium white wine produced by Vincent Careme, a renowned winemaker from the Loire Valley. The wine is made from grapes grown in the Swartland region of South Africa, which is known for its unique terroir and ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are carefully tended to by hand, and the grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure maximum flavor and complexity. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including fermentation in oak barrels and aging on the lees. The result is a beautifully balanced wine with a rich, creamy texture and notes of tropical fruit, citrus, and vanilla.
