The idea behind the KC range is to keep it simple and not over complicate things, light easy to drink anytime wine that can be enjoyed with food or on its own.

in the vineyard : We have sourced some of the best vineyards in the Western Cape to achieve this, with vineyards in Elgin to Stellenbosch and complimented with excess Constantia fruit that does not make it into our Estate label.

in the cellar : The Grapes are carefully hand selected and harvested from our selected vineyards. These are then brought in and made as gently as possible to maintain the fruit and freshness in the wine. After fermentation the wine is aged either in French oak barrels or Stainless steel tanks for up to 14 months before blending an bottling under our KC Range.
