A STORY OF ELEVATION

WINES OF GREAT INTENSITY FROM OUR SINGLE VINEYARD

Our home vineyard on the Mont Fleur farm, high up (393m above sea level) on the Eastern slopes of the Helderberg Mountain. The closest mountain in Stellenbosch to the sea. These complex granitic based soils have an ideal clay content that allows good drainage and sufficient water retention at the same time.

SYRAH 393:

Our Syrah is planted on the steepest section and consistently produces a wine of such depth and distinction we bottle some separately each year.
