Collaborating with Friends

Endeavoring to find the best possible groups of people to join us in creating the best possible products for markets we believe will suit our shared vision.

We believe in the power of collaboration, and aim to find the best possible groups of people to join us in creating the best possible products for our customers.

This starts with our winemakers, and extends far beyond to chefs, personalities and other wine-obsessed friends we look to, to help us create unique and distinctive products. 

We choose some of South Africa's most renowned winemakers who create beautiful wine and who elect to stand quietly behind their wines, allowing the terroir and the wine to speak for them.

“wine is not a competition”
