Vineyard Collection
Creating wine from our own vines
Vineyard Collection represents our most ambitious venture into bespoke winemaking. After conversations with friends at some of our best-loved wineries, we've secured select vines and small plots at exceptional vineyards around the world. This has enabled us to craft our own unique wines in limited quantities, showcasing all we have learned over the past few decades.
Our intrepid buying team leads the process at five locations worldwide, getting their hands dirty at each stage of production. Through meticulous taste-testing and quality control they ensure each wine is truly distinctive and of premium quality, putting all their experience and expertise into practice.
Here are the locations where we're producing our Vineyard Collection wines, each offering a unique expression of its terroir, harmoniously paired with our winemaking philosophy.
Riebeek, South Africa
Nestled in the picturesque Riebeek Valley, in the heart of the Swartland region, rolling slopes of vineyards thrive in rugged, untamed beauty. We have walked the vines and tasted the wines for years now. However, for the first time we have secured our own vines and are bringing them to bottle.
Henners, England
In the postcard-perfect village of Herstmonceux, East Sussex, you’ll find a wonderful array of sun-kissed vines and a winemaking team full of adventure. Henners is the perfect partner for our Vineyard Collection project and has committed rows of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to our cause.
Wildeberg, South Africa
Wildeberg is on the very edge of the south-eastern corner of the Cape’s venerable Coastal Region. It's here that JD Rossouw and his merry foot-soldiers tend to some of the finest and oldest vines in the Cape, and where we have isolated our vines for Vineyard Collection.
Vignerons Catalanes, France
Steeped in rich winemaking history dating back as early as 125BC, Languedoc-Roussillon is our chosen location for French wine. Vignerons Catalans are committed to producing top drops that reflect the region’s unique terroir, and they also happen to have some of the finest vineyards in Roussillon at their disposal.
McLaren Vale, Australia
In the sunny south of Australia, just below Adelaide and bordered by breathtaking coastlines to the west and mountains to the east, lies the compelling region of McLaren Vale. The birthplace of many of our bestselling bottles, and home to some very special vines dedicated to this project.
