Stellenbosch Reserve

Stellenbosch Reserve

Stellenbosch is a place that evokes dramatic mountains with rolling vineyards, venerable oaks, architectural heritage, and wine. It is a small town that has become the epicentre for South African viticulture. Stellenbosch manages to combine laid-back country lifestyle with world class wine, tourism, and cutting-edge agriculture. All this is what we try to capture in the Stellenbosch Reserve wines. Wines with a sense of place, heritage, and pride.

 

First conceived in 2005, the wine evolved from a single Bordeaux-style blend, to a range that reflects the Stellenbosch viticultural landscape. The Stellenbosch Reserve now encompasses seven wines, red and white, focusing on the classic Stellenbosch varieties of Chardonnay, Chenin blanc, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cinsault. The wines, like the place, capture that beautiful balance between accessibility and seriousness.

 

The grapes for the Stellenbosch Reserve are sourced from various appellations within the Stellenbosch region. We enjoy longstanding relationships with well-established grape-growers so that we receive consistently high-quality fruit from which to make our wine.
