Saturday Sipping Session – Blackwater Wines

A life-long dream that’s a decade old now; a love for the natural sciences led founder Francois Haasbroek down the wine route. Studying viticulture and oenology (wine making) at Stellenbosch University was the first stop, shortly followed by the formative experience of working under one of the greats of the industry, Neil Ellis. In-between a handful of harvests at Dry Creek Vineyard, Sonoma and Jackson Estate in Marlborough broadened the horizons a bit.

The following decade was spent working with Kevin Arnold at Waterford Estate in Stellenbosch, specialising in producing ultra-premium Stellenbosch wines. The creative urge, however, was always to establish something from conceptualisation to execution one day…. that day came in 2012.

His vision was to make interesting and dynamic wines regardless of origin, championing individual sites, growers, and cultivars; above all else, the mission is to make wines that truly surprise in their elegance and complexity.

Sophie 2022 – a heritage blend of Cabernet Franc And Cinsaut
