Player’s Tasting - Includes the popular Big Easy Range which pays tribute to golfing legend, Ernie Els, who is known on the course as “The Big Easy” as much for his effortless demeanour as for his big heart and philanthropic efforts.

Major Tasting – Includes the multi-award-winning Major Series Cabernet Sauvignon and its Major Merlot counterpart; as well as the exclusive Proprietor’s Range which is considered the winemaker’s expression of the property, consisting of a Red Blend and other inspired vintage-specific varieties.

Flagship Tasting – Curated seasonally by winemaker, Louis Strydom, to include exclusive vintage rarities which reflect the quintessence of our stance on the Helderberg appellation.

Specialities

Confidently New World, our single-minded focus is on producing premium Cabernet Sauvignon wines and Cabernet Sauvignon-based blends. Our property has a prime position in the Helderberg region within Stellenbosch, a district renowned for producing premium Cabernet Sauvignon wines. Our north and north-east facing vineyards are home to 9 types or clones of Cabernet Sauvignon, each of which exhibit slight differences in characteristics, such as berry size, cluster density, or ripening time. These variances affect our wines flavour, aroma, and structure, and help us produce wide-ranging styles of Cabernet suitable for every palate.
