Producer Information

In 1948 Swartland Co-operative was established with 15 members in the local movie house. Not only was independence from KWV achieved but they now had a winery where they could deliver and press their own grapes. The first chairman of the newly formed co-operative donated 4 hectares of his own farm Doornkuil, to be used for developing the winery. Today, Swartland Winery produces approximately 2.0 million bottles of wine a year from grapes supplied by producers across an area of 3 600 hectares.

Subtle notes of vanilla, red berry and prune on the nose. Red berry fruit flavours integrate with the gentle spiciness and velvety tannins. A wine with crisp acidity and a smoky and toasty finish.
