Zevenwacht: From vintage beginnings to bottled elegance

Thursday, 17 July, 2025
Zevenwacht Wine Estate
As winter wraps its cool hands around the Zevenwacht farm, the rhythm of the cellar is full of purpose.

The Zevenwacht winemaking team is hard at work preparing some of our beautifully aged wines for bottling, a moment we always look forward to, as the matured wines carefully come together in the bottle. Alongside these treasures, the very first of the 2025 wines are being bottled, a satisfying blend of seasons and stories in motion.

This time of year also signals the meticulous waxing of our premium and JAN wines, a process as precise as it is personal. The waxing process is both art and ritual; each bottle lowered into the molten wax like a brushstroke sealing a masterpiece. A fitting final touch for some of our most refined expressions of site and variety.
