ABOUT THIS WINE

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.

  • WINEMAKER: Bernhard Bredell

  • FARMING: Dry-farmed and practicing organic (uncertified)

  • VARIETY: 100% Pinotage

  • TERROIR: From two of the most maritime Pinotage bushvine vineyards in Stellenbosch, planted on sandy soils just inland from False Bay.

  • VINIFICATION: Grapes are harvested early; 50% are direct-pressed for minimal skin contact, resulting in lower extraction. Fermented with native yeasts.

  • TASTING NOTES: Juicy and bright with red cherry, sour cherry, and sweet herb tones. Light-bodied and vibrant with a refreshing grip and an excitingly long, mouthwatering finish.

  • FOOD PAIRINGS: Chilled duck breast, grilled tuna, char siu pork, or lightly spiced lentil stew.

  • ALCOHOL: 12%
