Isliedh is a remarkable combination of coastal Cape Sauvignon Blanc drenched in richly textured Sémillon. The grapes were 100% barrel-fermented with wild, natural yeasts, followed by maturation on the fine fermentation lees for 16 months in old French oak.

A rich, saline, and beautifully textured blend with floral notes and ripe nectarine, pink grapefruit, fig, and lemon curd leaping from the glass, unveiling a harmonious blend. It is complex and has a classic, long-lasting mineral finish.

Only the best vines on the estate are used in the Isliedh blend. The estate is positioned on the narrow Cape Peninsula, where the confluence of sea breezes from the cold Atlantic Ocean, less than one mile away, and the southeasterly breezes from False Bay create ideal conditions for the slow ripening of grapes. The breezes and good canopy management help keep the vines healthy and diseases at bay, reducing the need for treatments. When the winds are strong, they also control the vine’s vigour and encourage a second suckering. The Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes for the Isliedh wines are hand-selected from two specific vineyard parcels, facing the toughest conditions on the sea-facing mountain slope of the estate. Here, the severe winds and rocky, decomposed granite soils result in tiny bunches packed with wonderful complexity and signature mineral quality. The grapes are carefully hand-harvested.
