Ashanti wines are born of sun, air, rain and the Cape soil. Our logo, the 'Chiwara', is an ancient African symbol which represents the annual regeneration of life when these elements are in perfect harmony. This elegant, fruity wine has hints of spice and lingering finish.

This is a food wine, enjoyed at 18ºC, great with pasta, game and good robust poultry.
