Crafted from carefully selected single-block vineyards in Franschhoek, this elegant Pinot Noir was matured for 12 months in French oak, adding finesse and structure. The 2022 vintage reveals vibrant notes of ripe plum and red cherry, underpinned by subtle earthy nuances that evolve beautifully with time. Silky tannins and a graceful finish make this wine cellar-worthy for 5–8 years. A superb match for duck breast, venison loin, or delicate beef carpaccio.
As a second-generation winemaker, I craft the Haute Collection to honor tradition while pushing boundaries. This Pinot Noir comes from meticulously selected single blocks, allowing each vineyard’s character to shine. My focus is on precision and elegance—classic French grapes, minimal intervention, and gentle aging in French oak to let the terroir speak. It’s a personal expression of heritage, creativity, and a deep respect for Franschhoek’s unique soils.
