Our Wines
The Saronsberg Range
In the Saronsberg range, this philosophy finds expression in bold wines with powerful fruit components integrated with well-structured tannins. Sourced from the mid-valley region of the farm, the grapes that form the foundation for Saronsberg wines typically offer exceptional flavour and colour concentration. This allows for gentle vinification that maximises the Saronsberg range's hallmark colour and flavour, without any of the harsh tannins normally associated with over-extraction. Instead, tannin structure comes from maturation in (at least) 90% new French oak - a necessity when working with wines of such fruit intensity. The result is a range of wines in balance: full-bodied, yet elegant.

The Provenance Range
Though equal in quality and guided by the same philosophy of fruit-driven elegance, Provenance wines represent a major departure in style from their Saronsberg counterparts. Reflective of the inherent qualities of their unique origin, these lighter wines - with their finer fruit characters - evidence the true potential of Saronsberg farm's diverse terroir. The backbone of the range is formed from vines on the slopes of the Saronsberg Mountain - a region significantly cooler than the rest of the farm that allows for slow-ripening grapes with subtle colour and flavour attributes. In the cellar we take our cue from nature, highlighting these unique qualities through particularly tender vinification and a greater use of 2nd-fill oak - our aim at all times being the preservation of delicate initial fruit flavours.

The result is a range of accessible wines with expressive fruit, refined balance and soft tannins.
