Discover the grape variety: Prc
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate and preserved acidity showing understated aromas of citrus, white flowers and herbaceous Dalmatian notes. An airy, rustic profile for early drinking. Preserved for its heritage value, it reflects the rich varietal diversity of the Croatian coast among the studied Dalmatian autochthonous varieties.

The wine region of Swartland
South African renaissance north of Cape Town: signature Chenin Blanc as king white (old bush vines) — full and mineral with notes of quince, honey, yellow fruits, toasted almond and a saline touch, noble texture and a refined finish. Signature Syrah as king red — spicy and fleshy with blackberry, raspberry, garrigue and pepper, fine tannins. Grenache and Cinsault complete it. Non-interventionist winemaking (whole bunch, old foudres).
The wine region of Western Cape
Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.
The word of the wine: Tries (harvest by)
Harvesting in several successive passages to harvest at their optimal concentration the grapes affected by noble rot. They allow the production of great sweet wines.
