Celebrate Pinotage with us
Pinotage Day is just around the corner, and we invite you to join us in our tasting room on 12 October for a truly special celebration. We’ll be opening our Rijk's Pinotage Reserve 2013 magnums, a rare and exclusive treat that perfectly captures the essence of our vineyard’s legacy. This vintage has aged to perfection, showcasing remarkable depth and richness.
Our tasting room will be open from 10h00 to 16h00, so come and celebrate our beloved South African grape with us.
Spring on the farm
Spring has arrived, and with it comes exciting changes in the vineyards. Bud burst is now in full swing, slightly later than last year but consistent across both Chenin Blanc and Pinotage. Despite it still being very cold and wet for October with snow on the mountains, we’re hopeful for a strong season ahead. We’ve begun suckering the early blocks and, with the abundant winter rain, the vines are set for a promising season.
Our cover crops have thrived despite challenging conditions due to a very wet and cold winter. The triticale has created the organic carpet we hoped for, and the lupins exceeded expectations, enriching the soil with nitrogen, all part of our promise to sustainability.
We have a couple of new tricks up our sleeve for the coming growing season and we are very excited to see the outcome.
