We produce a range of red wines including Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and a small amount of the South African varietal, Pinotage. Farm manager and in-house winemaker, Ernie Wilken seeks advice from renowned viticulturalist Kevin Watt and consultant winemaker, Cathy Marshall. Grapes are hand-picked and yields are deliberately low to ensure quality. After careful assessments to establish the exact ripeness required from the grapes, they are harvested in the cool early hours of the morning. Internal grape temperature can be dropped further or maintained in refrigerated storage facilities. In the cellar the temperature is carefully controlled and we use the finest oak and modern methods to ensure a quality product. A meticulous blending process and the advice of experts with excellent palates help us create our blends including the Shiraz dominated blend that is our "Statement". Due to popular demand we have recently added a white wine to our range.

    Some discussion of clones may shed light on the New World expression of Pinot Noir. I have long believed that clones explain a great deal of the diversity found in the many wines made from this globe-hopping noble grape. Terroir, vineyard maintenance and climate do not seem to fully explain the differences - at least, not to my satisfaction. ... Read More
