Bosman Family Vineyards, an eight-generation estate in South Africa’s Wellington region, blends heritage winemaking with a forward-thinking approach. Their Méthode Ancestrale Weisser Riesling is a playful, naturally sparkling take on the classic Riesling grape, bottled before fermentation finishes to capture the gentle bubbles and freshness of a pét-nat. The 2023 vintage highlights the grape’s aromatic charm and crisp structure, making for a wine that is as fun as it is nuanced.

Fresh lime, green apple, and jasmine aromas give way to a lightly textured palate with hints of honeyed stone fruit and flinty minerality. The bubbles are soft and creamy rather than aggressive, and a touch of natural sweetness balances the wine’s vibrant acidity. Unlike traditional méthode champenoise sparklers, Méthode Ancestrale wines retain a slightly raw, unfiltered character, adding to their rustic appeal.

Perfect for aperitifs, sushi, or spicy dishes, this is a sparkling wine that’s both easygoing and thought-provoking. Best served well-chilled and enjoyed young for its bright, energetic charm.

More about Bosman Family Vineyards

The Bosman family has farmed Lelienfontein in Wellington since 1798, and has grown and grafted vines there since 1888; the farm is home to one of Africa's most influential vine nurseries. After decades focused on the nursery, they returned to winemaking in 2007. Fairtrade certified since 2009, the business is partly owned by its workers through a landmark empowerment deal. Their lively Chenin Blanc pét-nat is fresh, fun and accessible, proof South Africa has depth beyond the obvious choices.

Tasting Profile

Effervescent and delicate, with bright apple and pear notes alongside subtle mineral undertones. Fine bubbles and crisp acidity make this bone-dry Riesling sparkler refreshing and elegant.
