The Wine The Wine
South Africa
Region:Western Cape
This 'collaborative series' focuses on sourcing exceptional fruit from some of South Africa's most notable Western Cape grape growing regions. Through careful selection and a quest to showcase the very best expression of each variety these vineyards are harvested separately and then brought together in the winery, crafting truly standout wines packed with character and typicity. This wonderfully unique wine was produced from a standout parcel of Tempranillo, has a core of black fruit, a fresh strawberry lift and plenty of mouthcoating juiciness with notes of berries and spice.

Alecia Boshoff
Alecia started her career as assistant winemaker after completing her BSc (Agric) Viticulture and Oenology degree at the University of Stellenbosch in 2002. She gained valuable international winemaking skills during harvests in Australia, France and the USA, before returning to South Africa. Her passion for Swartland (she is a born-and-bred Swartlander) can be seen in her dedication to the terroir and wines from this region.
"We're fortunate to work with one of the Cape's rare Tempranillo sites. The aim was to honour the variety's structure and savoury character while capturing the brightness and purity found naturally in Western Cape fruit. The result is expressive, balanced and proudly South African." - Alecia Boshoff, Winemaker.
