THE ELEMENTS is named after the 3 most important factors at the origin of this wine: Soil, climate and peoples.

CLIMATE: The Cape’s winegrowing regions are influenced by one of the two mighty oceans which meet at this southernmost tip of Africa: the Atlantic and the Indian oceans. Combine beneficial maritime influences like regular coastal fog and cooling sea breezes with a moderate Mediterranean climate

SOIL: Sandy soil, derived from Table Mountain Sandstone, with low nutrient and water-retention properties

PEOPLES: The Elements wines combine a winemaking tradition and history dating back over 350 years (the elegance of the Old World) with the accessible fruit-driven styles of the New world
