Terroir
The Treinspoor vineyard, located in the heart of the Swartland region in South Africa, is an exceptional site that embodies the strength and potential of old vines. Planted with the grape variety Tinta Barocca, a Portuguese variety, this vineyard sits on soils rich in shale and granite, giving the wine a distinct mineral undertone. The dry, warm conditions of Swartland, combined with cool nights, allow for a balanced and slow ripening of the grapes, resulting in concentrated flavors and complex aromas.
The location offers excellent exposure to the sun, enabling the grapes to achieve optimal ripeness. This translates into wines with powerful dark fruit aromas, complemented by subtle earthy tones and a distinctive spiciness. The old vines, which root deeply into the poor soils, contribute to the rich tannin structure and depth of the wines.
What others say after opening the bottle
I like that I can buy good wines here without allocations. The bottles I’ve opened were exactly where they needed to be. Jannes his advice felt honest and personal, which helped me decide. Delivery was careful and straightforward. K. Loesberg
I spoke with Jannes before ordering because I wanted additional photos of the bottle, and that gave me confidence. The wine was ready to drink. Being able to buy single bottles for the occasion instead of full cases suits me well. Everything arrived perfect. T. Driessen
What I appreciate most is not having to guess anymore. I prefer to buy wines that are in the middel of there drinking window. Jannes his guidance was calm and helpful, and the delivery was handled with care. J. Annaert
Jannes helped me choose for a special food pairing, and the whole process felt easy and trustworthy. I don’t have a cellar to store wines for years. Buying loose bottles in there drinking window is a big advantage. Shipping was good. B. Denruyter
After opening too many wines too early in the past, this feels different. The timing has been spot on. I like the freedom of buying without allocations and choosing single bottles. Delivery has been consistently good. R. Bontemps
The advice from Jannes made the selection feel personal, not generic. The wine I ordered for Christmas was exactly as expected. I didn’t need a full case, so buying individual bottles works well. Everything arrived safely and on time. D. Smits
Great to enjoy wines without second-guessing. Jannes his advice helped narrow things down, and I appreciate being able to order just a few bottles. Delivery is good, quick and well handled. W. Snijders
This suits how I drink wine now. I don’t want to wait years or buy cases. The bottles arrive ready, the advice is solid, and the process feels dependable from start to finish. A. van Kempen
