Swartland · Western Cape
Old vines, dry-farmed,
made slow.
Three generations of our family, a handful of bush-vine blocks, and a cellar we can walk across in twelve paces. Come out and taste.
Who we are
We farm a small piece of the Swartland — decomposed granite, low rainfall, no irrigation. The vines were planted by Oupa in 1974 and they still find their own water.
The wines are made in the way the fruit asks for: whole-bunch pressed whites, foot-trodden reds, old oak, minimum sulphur at bottling. Some are unfined and unfiltered. All of them taste like this place.
Current release
A few honest bottles
Come out and taste
The cellar door is open Wednesday to Sunday.
Tastings are R120 per person, waived on a six-bottle purchase. Saturday mornings we walk you through the old blocks at 11:00 — bring a hat. Spit buckets on the bench, designated drivers always welcome.
