OUR WINE | Varietals & barrels
Sebastian and his team are fortunate to have 40 years of viticulture experience on this unique farm.
His wine making approach is instinctive, believing that wine is made in the vineyards and minimal intervention is needed. Ancient, low-yielding Chenin Blanc and Pinotage vines are honoured in the process, allowing the wines to be a true reflection of the land and vineyards. He has a hands-on approach to wine-making, using old-cellar techniques like natural yeasts and old open concrete ‘’kuipe’’ fermenters.
His non-conformist approach embraces the old but also creatively uses modern winemaking techniques to produce limited quantities of specialised, characterful and authentic wines.

BEAUMONT CAPE WHITE
2013
Finally our first Cape White (Port style) created by chance in 2013 by Alvaro Roseira, our Portuguese intern that year. Initially started as a skin ferment Chenin Blanc that Alvaro said we should fortify to make a port wine. Drier than you think, strangely nutty and yet with that delicious fruit of the Chenin Blanc. Drink neat or mixed with tonic and a slice of orange as a delicious aperitif.

BEAUMONT HOPE MARGUERITE 2018
A careful selection of the most characterful fruit from our oldest vineyards at Beaumont, left to ferment naturally with minimum intervention, matured in mostly old 400L French oak, of which 15% was new wood.
Matches brilliantly with seafood especially scallops and any beautifully spicy Asian dishes.
