Here's what's happening this August.

Baker Station Shiraz: Take a walk through Franschhoek's story
Every village has its stories.
Our Village Walk wine collection celebrates the places, people and history that have shaped Franschhoek over generations.
The award-winning Baker Station Shiraz pays tribute to the village's original railway station, named after celebrated architect Sir Herbert Baker. Like its namesake, it's full of character, offering generous mulberry and plum flavours, soft ripe tannins and a long, beautifully balanced finish.
It's more than a bottle of wine. It's another chapter in the story of Franschhoek.

The Last Elephant: A legend in every bottle
In the late nineteenth century, the last elephant disappeared from the Franschhoek Valley.
Its story, however, lives on.
The Last Elephant is our tribute to that enduring legacy crafted from the finest parcels produced by our cellar and recognised time and again by some of the wine industry's most respected judges.
Powerful yet elegant. Richly expressive. A wine created to be remembered.
Some wines accompany a meal. Others become part of the story.
