"Impressively voluminous bouquet, yet transparent in structure with juicy notes of black cherries, sloe and cassis, a subtle balsamic-oriental top note of mint tea, as well as spicy, complex hints of macchia herbs. Overwhelmingly velvety volume on the palate, but immediately invigorated with striking spiciness. The abundance of the multi-layered forest berries aroma is structured with a strait-laced backbone and exceptionally fine-grained tannins. Laser-fine veins of acidity create a beautiful freshness that penetrates the baroque juiciness. Noble vanilla notes and hints of baking spices compliment the fruit in the powerful finish, with a reverberation of supple fire." Frank Kämmer, Master Sommelier

On the 2nd of February 1659 Jan van Riebeeck the first Commander of the Cape noted in his diary: “Fine warm weather… Today praise be to God wine was made for the first time from Cape grapes.” On the 2nd of February 2009 three hundred and fifty vintages later four men share their passion for wine and a vision for the future: a world-class wine from South Africa combining the best terroirs of the Cape with Old World winemaking expertise. On the ground was Giorgio Dalla Cia whose knowledge of South African vineyards is legendary. Thrilled by the idea the late Denis Dubourdieu joined the group: master winemaker to numerous icon wines in Bordeaux Hermitage and elsewhere. Our first vintage G. 2010 was released to rave reviews. 2011 and 2012 continue to set a new standard – on par with and above the greatest wines of the world. 2013 and 2014 regularly break preconceptions in international blind tastings.
