Saturday Sipping With Bruce Jack Wines, this Saturday – 29 August.
A slightly more curious line-up for this Saturday. Bruce Jack wines that wander a little off the well-trodden path.
Bruce Jack has never been particularly interested in making wine by formula. His world is one of interesting vineyards, unusual varieties, experimentation and plenty of personality. The Ghost in the Machine wines lean right into that spirit. Small-batch, characterful wines that play with variety, texture and expectation. Then there’s The Drift, Bruce’s more intimate Overberg project, where site and patience get to do the talking.
This Saturday we’re opening:
Ghost in the Machine Skin Chenin Blanc 2024
Chenin with its sleeves rolled up. Skin contact brings texture, grip and another dimension to a grape we know so well.
Ghost in the Machine Clairette Blanche 2023
Clairette is hardly an everyday sighting, which is precisely why we like it. A lovely chance to taste one of the Cape’s lesser-seen varieties.
Ghost in the Machine Malbec/Viognier 2023
An unexpected marriage. Dark-fruited Malbec meets aromatic Viognier in a blend that sounds slightly mad until it lands in the glass.
The Drift There Are Still Mysteries Pinot Noir 2019
And to finish, a Pinot with a few years behind it. From The Drift Estate in the Overberg, this is the quieter, more contemplative side of Bruce Jack. A wine worth lingering over.
Four wines. A few surprises. And proof that Saturday drinking is considerably more fun when you get a little curious
