Making A Difference

Planet

One of our core beliefs is that wine encapsulates what Nature does best. A founding principle and our ongoing mission is to leave our part of the planet in a better place. We are inspired by the natural beauty surrounding us, and through several initiatives, we are committed to protecting and nurturing our environment.

By adopting regenerative farming practices, we aim to create a harmonious and self-sustaining environment that, in turn, can contribute to the development of exceptional wines. The emphasis on soil health, biodiversity, and holistic management aligns with the idea that a healthy vineyard ecosystem produces grapes that are more distinct and expressive of their terroir, with optimal flavour concentration, positively influencing the character of the wines.

Our holistic conservation approach includes many aspects. We practice regenerative farming, maintain indigenous fynbos corridors, set aside protected indigenous plant areas, use cover crops, use solar for power independence, and use natural predators - guinea fowl, wasps and ladybirds, for pest control. These initiatives help reduce our carbon footprint and increase the farm's biodiversity, creating a more sustainable and resilient ecosystem. Our World Wildlife Fund (WWF) accreditation as a Conservation Champion is a testament to our efforts and reminds us that we are travelling in the right direction.
