Vineyard and Winery

Made with 100% Grenache Blanc grapes from Swartland. Grenache Blanc thrives here, on deep “koffieklip” soils where production is low due to dryland growing conditions. The combination of clay mixed with small stones gives good water retention while allowing the roots to penetrate deep into the soil. Cool Atlantic breezes shape the grapes’ expressive freshness.
