Drostdy Hof Steen 2004

Winemaker Louw Engelbrecht describes this as a medium-bodied wine, brilliant straw in colour with a tinge of green. It shows an abundance of citrus fruit aromas and tastes supported by fresh deciduous fruit flavours.

He says it is a very versatile wine that can be savoured on its own or with fish, white meats and salads.
