Hamilton Russell Vineyards
Hamilton Russell Vineyards – one of the most southerly wine Estates in Africa and one of the closest to the sea – pioneered viticulture and winemaking in the beautiful cool maritime Hemel-en-Aarde Valley appellation just behind the old fishing village of Hermanus. The Estate specialises in producing highly individual terroir driven Pinot noir and Chardonnay which are widely regarded as the best in South Africa and among the finest in the New World.

On the palate, it showcases a rich, yet refined texture with a balance of savory and fruit-driven notes. The tannins are finely structured, providing a long and satisfying finish, indicative of its aging potential.
