Elim Wine Ward


This pioneering wine region has completely captured the minds of winemakers, and wine connoisseurs throughout the world. Wines produced in this area go under the Agulhas district and Elim ward.


Perpetual winds off the sea on this peninsula, cool laterite, sandstone and broken shale soils, cool temperatures during the ripening stage, and high light intensity, engraves in the berries flavours such as nettle, capsicum, gooseberry, figs and passion fruit. The wines have a full palate, are crisp and minerally, have lots of concentrated fruit with an excellent finish.
