MCC Chardonnay
A deep golden, rich honey colour with a vivacious tint of green. The wine has developed a voluptuous, complex nose rich in sundrenched apricot, peach, freshly baked bread and roasted almond complemented by a well-integrated wood character which will become more harmonious with time and bottle ageing. A crisp mouth feel with flavours of citrus especially fresh lime, velvety creaminess and lingering citrus aftertaste with the wood in harmony.
Org de Rac Chardonnay
Irresistible aromas of tropical fruit are beautifully balanced by subtle oak and follow through on the palate. The lingering finish rewards with titillating lime and gorgeous butterscotch.
Org de Rac Merlot
An elegant yet vibrant wine. Lighter in style with a bouquet of berry, plum, cigar-box, a whiff of mint and a touch of dark chocolate. Generous on the palate with well-integrated oak and soft tannins supporting the delicate fruit flavours.
Org de Rac Shiraz
Enticing aromas of black forest cake, ripe plum, cherry and vanilla beckon on the nose. On the palate subtle hints of roasted coffee bean combine with oak spice while delightful dried fruit flavours linger on the aftertaste.
Org de Rac Cabernet Sauvignon
Distinctive aromas of tomato leaf, pencil shavings and mulberry beckon on the nose. A rich and well – rounded wine with sumptuous dark fruit flavours supported by velvety tannins.
Org de Rac Sauvignon Blanc
Fresh and crisp with zesty lemon, strong varietal mouthfeel with lingering tropical fruit flavours.

Merlot Reserve
The exclusive organic reserve range is grown on the south-facing slopes of Piketberg Mountain where specially selected vines yield grapes of great distinction. Thanks to meticulous cellar practices every wine in the range is an aristocrat in its own right.

This wine needs time while all components harmonise into a softer more elegantly balanced wine.

Port Pumphouse
As a non vintage blend maximum consistency was achieved in the character of this organic Cape Ruby. Colour is a very bright deep beetroot. Opulent nose with a mixture of baked fruitcake and fresh berries underlined with a rich nutty mature bouquet. This complex Swartland Cape Ruby shows a well-integrated wood backdrop.
Light sugar with harmonious acid balance. Fruity mouthfeel and light lingering freshness.
