From the coastal bushvine vineyards of the Lower Helderberg, 'Atlantikas' is Bernhard Bredell’s energetic and maritime-inflected take on Pinotage. Harvested early and handled delicately, this bottling highlights the lighter, fresher expression of South Africa’s native grape—a true “alternative red” in style and spirit.
