Nederburg is one of South Africa’s leading wineries, with a prize-winning pedigree that stems from a culture of innovation and disciplined attention to detail. The wines are richly fruited with elegant, fresh flavours and structure, and range from exclusive, micro-edition offerings for the connoisseur to wines styled for everyday enjoyment.

in the vineyard : This fresh, fruity and well-balanced wine is made from Chenin blanc fruit sourced from Swartland and Agter-Paarl vines, 38 and 36 years old respectively. These heritage vines are certified by South Africa’s esteemed Old Vine Project (OVP).

in the cellar : This expressive wine consists of three differently vinified components. One portion of fruit was fermented in first-, second- and third-fill 300-litre and 500-litre barrels. A second component was fermented in stainless-steel tanks, while a third was fermented in amphorae (clay pots). ADer fermentation, the various components were kept on the lees for nine months prior to final blending and bottling.
