More Information

In 1988, the Reyneke family bought the farm Uitzicht, a 90-acre farm on the ridge of the Polkadraai Hills, with spectacular views of Stellenbosch. Contemporaneously, Johan Reyneke began the lengthy process of the conversion from conventional farming to organic practices to a method of farming which was in accordance with biodynamic principles. Reyneke was the first farm in South Africa to achieve certification by Demeter International, the largest, and arguably, the most widely acknowledged biodynamic accreditation body in the world.

The farm produces several ranges of wines including Reserve, Biodynamic, Organic, and Vinehugger. They also produce a red blend named The Capstone with the proceeds of the wine helping the farm workers and their families."Some richer, nutty, toasty notes here but it is still super-fresh and mineral. Tingly, lively. Brilliantly mineral and complex with some richness but also vibrancy and warm oak and matchstick characters. Mandarin, tangerine and grapefruit flavours. Will age beautifully." 94/100 Jamie Goode
