THE STONE KITCHEN
WELLINGTON, WESTERN CAPE
Our restaurant, The Stone Kitchen starts with new management from June onwards!
Our Shiraz 2009 makes us proud!
Apart from the Silver medal at the 2011 Old Mutual Trophy show, it earned us a 4-star in John Platter guide :)
OUR WINE MAKING PROCESS
Hand picked, hand sorted, gently pressed using a traditional basket and matured in 100% oak barrels for 16 months
OUR VINEYARD
A small vineyard lying at the foothills of the Bains Kloof Pass. 2.8 hectare planted since in 2002 with Merlot and Shiraz cultivars.
Every aspect of maintenance and care of the vineyard is done by hand: no machinery goes into the rows of vines, not even a tractor!

A deep purple full bodied wine, lush with soft integrated tannins. Aromas of ripe dark fruit, spices and oak linger on the palate and in the memory, long after the last sip. |

This is an elegant, beautifully structured wine. Robust aromas of ripe red berries and a touch of mocha are followed by an elegant yet subtle oak integration. The palate shows a smooth tannin structure accompanied by white pepper and a lengthy finish. |
