La Vierge Wines

The heart of our conviction is simple yet deliberate: Trust the site. 20 years ago, Peter Clarke founded the farm up in the cool-climate Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. In a natural and beautiful amphitheatre, he chose the purity of planting dryland vineyards on virgin soils. Each block is exposed to unique aspects, rewarding us with layered and complex fruit. Providing the foundation for our wines, our cellar gently unveils their full expression of terroir and vintage.
