At Stellenzicht Vineyards, recognition is never the goal. It is the outcome of patience, precision, and a deep respect for the land we call home.
This year, the Michelangelo International Wine and Spirits Awards brought us a proud moment: the Acheulean Red 2019 received a Double Gold medal.
Named after the Acheulean hand-axes unearthed on our farm, this wine pays tribute to tools shaped nearly a million years ago; symbols of time, balance, and endurance.
The Acheulean Red reflects these qualities with elegance and strength, carrying the story of our soils and the care with which it was made.
We are equally delighted to share that several of our wines were awarded Gold, including the Acheulean Chardonnay 2024, Silcrete Cinsault 2023, Thunderstone Red 2023, Thunderstone Chardonnay 2024, and Checkers Cabernet Sauvignon 2023.
These medals are a reminder of what guides us every day; creating wines grounded in nature, true to their origin, and always in pursuit of balance.
To our winemaking team and to all who enjoy Stellenzicht wines with us, we raise a glass.
In pursuit of balance, always.
Acheulean Red 2019
Acheulean Red reveals its elegance from hand-picked Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Cinsault, carefully fermented with patience and precision.
Eighteen months in French oak weave together sumptuous red and black fruits, silky tannins, layered oak, and savoury nuances, creating a complex wine destined to age gracefully for over ten years.
