About this Item
Haskell Vineyards graces the slopes of the Helderberg mountain range in Stellenbosch, an area known as the “Golden Triangle”, widely recognized as one of South Africa’s finest wine-growing sub-regions and home to many of South Africa’s top wines.
In 2002, American/Russian property tycoon Preston Haskell IV purchased the farm Dombeya (originally part of neighbouring Rust & Vrede) and renamed it Haskell Vineyards. Shortly thereafter, Rianie Strydom joined Haskell as Winemaker and GM, and soon became the first woman to be offered membership of the Cape Winemakers Guild.

Critics Ratings
‘Voluptuous and plush but with restrained black-fruit ripeness and a smoky sheen from 30% new French oak. Silky, serious, textured palate. Swarthy and intense but with deftness of touch evident.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2015, 4.5*
