In 1994 Emil and Sonette were searching for a special property in the Cape. When they arrived here and looked out at Table Mountain in the West, across False Bay and east to the Stellenbosch mountains, they knew they had found one. Emil and Sonette began a journey to create South Africas first 5 varietal Bordeaux blend with a philosophy of gentle winemaking and detailed vineyard practices. Emil can be attributed to creating a true designer wine estate in South Africa.
“I believe the detailed attention we give to our vineyards and to the winemaking process is reflectedin our wine. It is not just another wine, it is a wine made with passion and a labour of love."
