Why You'll Love It
A bright, fragrant take on Grenache from the Swartland, with the rarer hairy-leaved Garnacha Peluda adding an extra dimension. Delicate red fruit and fine tannins make it ideal with duck, lamb or grilled vegetables.
About The Producer
Kloovenburg lies beneath the rugged Kasteelberg mountain, just outside the historic town of Riebeek Kasteel in South Africa’s Swartland. The estate was purchased in 1956 by the Du Toit and De Kock families, with Piet and Barbara du Toit making the farm their home the following year.

Their son Pieter joined his father at Kloovenburg in 1987 and now runs the estate alongside his wife, Annalene, and their four sons. The family made their first wine in 1997, producing just 200 bottles of Pinotage with little more than their hands and feet for equipment. A dedicated cellar followed in 2000.

Today, Kloovenburg remains a handsome, bustling family farm of vineyards, olive groves and table grapes. Its vines sweep across the lower slopes of Kasteelberg, where changing elevations, aspects and soils create a patchwork of growing conditions. Rooted in the warmth and generosity of the Swartland, the estate combines generations of farming experience with a thoughtful, modern approach to the land.
Winemaking Information
A blend of Grenache and Garnacha Peluda from the 2025 vintage. Grapes are picked by hand and chilled to 5°C. Around 30% is fermented as whole clusters with indigenous yeasts in open fermenters; the rest is destemmed. After seven days' additional skin contact, the wine completes malolactic fermentation and spends ten months in neutral barrels and concrete vessels.
