The story of Esona is handwritten….
Esona… ‘The Very One’
OUR WINE RANGE
Esona Sauvignon Blanc
Try me at my peak maturation. A serious full bodied style that portrays subtle bouquets of guava, green fig and gooseberries. The palate is fresh and crispy with a round finish.
Esona Chardonnay
Yellow apple on the nose with hints of citrus and some tropical notes coming through. Rich, fruity mouth feel due to wild yeast fermentation and lingers with a fresh minerality.
Esona Shiraz
Peppery bouquet with hints of ripe plums, strawberries and grapefruit. On wood for 11 months and is a hearty red wine noted for its complexity of aromas and flavours.
Frankly My Dear
Blanc de Noir (rosé) with delightful candies on the nose, a fresh palate and a lengthy aftertaste that lingers like a sunny summer afternoon.
Esona Chenin Blanc
Sublime ripe fruit on the nose with beautiful honey-like textures on the palate. Fresh acidity which makes our Chenin Blanc a well balanced yet delightful and easy drink.
Coming Soon
Grenache, Barbera, Sangiovese, Colombard and Mourvèdre
