Reyneke Organic Red
The organic wine range reflects our “less is more” approach. Nature, after all, is wonderful. These wines are approachable and balanced without being overly complex. The grapes for our organic range are grown at a slightly lower altitude. The resulting climate and soil fertility lends itself to making wines that are fruit driven. All our wines in this range are organic (Eco certified), vegan- friendly & an ideal go-to wine for enjoying any day of the week.
The wine opens up to a bouquet of red cherries, violets, spice and black pepper. There are further hints of smokiness, black berries and moist tobacco on the nose. Distinct notes of pepper, all spice, dark fruit and nutmeg can be distinguished on the palate. The wine is well balanced and has a good structure and dry finish.
It is a wine made to enjoy and savour now, but can be kept for a year or two in bottle.
98% Shiraz, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2020 Organic Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon is made up of a blend of 98% Shiraz and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. Grapes are sourced from the best organic vineyards across the Western Cape, a third of which comes directly from the estate.
The grapes are sorted, destemmed and wild, spontaneous fermentation takes place in a combination of concrete tanks and open-top stainless-steel fermenters. 12% of the wine spends 12 months in well-seasoned oak barrels, after which the assemblage is made up and bottled.
Reyneke Organic Red
WE BELIEVE there’s a lot to be said for the way winemaking used to be. There were no chemicals, no “technological advancements” that made the process a process, and natural balance was more important than balance sheets.
Some people dismiss it as old-fashioned nostalgia, but we like to think of it as ancient wisdom. And we embrace it as much as we can. Not just because it’s better for the earth, but because it makes for better wine.

Our workers are seen as the foundation of our house and the cornerstone of our business. After all, one cannot make great wine without good grapes and there’s no way of growing good grapes without having everyone on board.
The Indian philosopher Amartya Sen said that true empowerment is about the capability to choose for oneself. It’s something we wholeheartedly believe.
