GOOD HOPE
SOUTHERN TIP OF AFRICA
Transport your imagination to vineyards framed by ancient mountains, just a stone's throw from the sea near the Cape of Good Hope.
When I first traveled to the Cape 10 years ago, I felt in love with the country and its wines. I also discovered the beautiful and rich biodiversity of the Cape, known as fynbos. I knew that I would do something with it sooner or later.
And in 2021, my wines of South Arica "Born of Fire" came to life, crafted in harmony with the principles of organic agriculture.
INSPIRATION
THE NAME
"Born of Fire is a tribute to the Cape Floral Kingdom.
Nature is an endless source of inspiration"
The Cape Floral Kingdom is the home to thousands of plant species unique to South Africa, the vegetation is composed of fynbos (Cape “fine Bush”). Fire is necessary for many fynbos plants, such as proteas, to release and activate seeds. Born of Fire, new flowers grow, ensuring propagation and survival.

A fabulous white wine, showing mango, papaya and dried-lemon character with stony and floral notes. Deep and complex palate with wonderful tension between the tropical fruit, the spicy oak and a peppery quality. The long finish is both bright and creamy.
SYRAH

ORGANIC WINE
Very complex, rich, red to dark fruit and plenty of very fine, exotic, sweet-scented spice, as well as a red floral edge and a thread of dried herbs and fresh earth.
