Producer: Eikendal Vineyards, Stellenbosch
Eikendal Vineyards lies a few kilometres outside Stellenbosch, at the foot of the Helderberg. The estate has belonged to the Swiss Saager family since 1981 and combines South African terroir with precise, quality-focused winemaking. Its location in Stellenbosch, the influence of the nearby Atlantic Ocean and the diversity of its vineyard sites shape wines with fruit, structure and elegance. The vineyards are carefully managed, and the individual parcels are vinified separately. This allows Eikendal to bring the specific characteristics of each grape variety, site and vintage into the wines with precision. With Nadine, the focus is on combining juicy Shiraz fruit, the roundness of Grenache and restrained ageing in large oak casks.
