Joseph’s Legacy is a tribute to Perdeberg’s legendary winemaker, Joseph Huskisson, who was a visionary in his time at Perdeberg from 1956-1994. This wine was motivated by passion, tradition and the philosophy behind Dry Land Viticulture and Winemaking. Only the best barrels from the 2019 vintage were selected for this magnificent blend.

 

in the vineyard : Sourced from selected dry land vineyards in the Paarl area, each varietal was hand-harvested separately to ensure all the fruit reached the cellar at its optimal ripeness. The soil consists of decomposed granite, Glenrosa, and Malmesbury shales. These vineyard blocks have no irrigation as they primarily rely on winter rainfall.
