Alvi's Drift
Alvi’s Drift is a third-generation, family-owned winery in South Africa’s Breede River Valley. Named after the bridge connecting the farm, our 410-hectare estate lies in the cool-climate Scherpenheuvel ward, where diverse soils shape our award-winning wines. From crisp whites to elegant reds, MCCs, and sparkling wines, each bottle reflects a love for craft and terroir. Led by winemaker Alvi van der Merwe, we blend tradition with innovation—doing more than expected, because we’re doing what we love.
Description
A young and vibrant wine with an alluring purple hue. The nose is forthcoming and expressive, brimming with ripe raspberries and red cherries. The fruit carries elegantly onto the palate, supported by silky tannins and a refreshing acidity that brings balance and poise. The finish is lingering, with a lovely echo of cherry and subtle spice.
Food Pairing
A versatile partner to beef or Springbok carpaccio, or a hearty Spaghetti Bolognaise. Serve at 12 – 14 °C for optimal enjoyment.
