Tradition From Burgundy and South Africa Shapes Our Riesling
Petra and I spent a year in Burgundy at Guy Roule and Jacques Prieur then two years in South Africa to craft wines. Our Rieslings and Pinot Noir come from organically grown grapes in a 200-year-old cellar using traditional oak and indigenous yeasts. Dry Rieslings undergo skin contact for depth, with wines aged 18-24 months before sale.
