Tierhoek Wines
Tierhoek was
established as a farm in 1886 and is one of the oldest surviving, original
Sandveld farms on the West Coast of Africa. This 715ha farm was owned by the
Marais family from 1886 to 2001, and is presently owned by Tony and Shelly
Sandell.
The Sandells have
restored the derelict buildings back into their original Sandveld style,
including an old horse mill and horse cart saddlery. A cellar is also being
built to accommodate for the 20ha of newly planted vines.
Wine
Tierhoek is ideally
suited for vineyards. The unique
climate, soils and aspect all allow for premium wines that are characterized by
intense fruit flavors, backed by subtle mineralogy and fresh acidity.
The flagship is the
Chenin Blanc made from low yielding 30 year old trellised vines, which are
barrel fermented in French Oak to express the full flavors of this variety,
while maintaining complexity and elegance.
Some of these Chenin
Blanc grapes are naturally dried off the vine for several weeks then barrel
fermented in French Oak to produce Tierhoek straw wine.
Not to be outdone,
the Sauvignon Blanc (unwooded) and Grenache Noir are some of the finest
examples of their kind in South Africa. All the Tierhoek wines benefit from
ageing in the bottle.
Have a fantastic
year.
