Blank Bottle Master Of None
Affordable entry to the world of Pieter 'Blank Bottle' Walser.
Master of None is a tongue in cheek response to the charge that Pieter was making too many wines from too many grape varieties in too many styles. As such, it's a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Pinot Noir, Pinotage, Fernao Pires, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc... The list goes on, but it works, in a very juicy, Beaujolais-type style.
Every one of Pieter’s wines is a story, rather than a grape variety, and it’s the juice inside the bottle which reveals that story. He doesn’t own any vines, but instead scours South Africa’s winelands for top-quality fruit that has somehow slipped under the radar, now sourcing from nearly 70 sites. Some years he’ll make 20 wines, other years 35. With the benefit of anonymity, variety and regional identity take a back seat while parcel expression does the driving. These are some of South Africa’s most original wines, made by one of South Africa’s most original winemakers.
Serve chilled - lots of strawberry juice, cherry and earthy notes too, blackcurrant leaf and pomegranate. It's a fun little wine to not be taken too seriously.
