Gary and Kathy Jordan have been making world-class wines at this top wine estate since 1993 on a farm with a history going back over 300 years. Together this husband and wife team is a phenomenon. Gary’s parents Ted and Sheelagh bought the 164 hectare Stellenbosch property in 1982 and embarked on an extensive replanting programme specialising in classic varieties suited to the different soils and slopes. Unique by nature’s design the Jordan slopes face North South East and West with vineyards lying at differing altitudes from 160 to 410 meters above sea level. The vineyards benefit from their close proximity to both the Indian and Atlantic Oceans and enjoy a mild Mediterranean climate with a maritime influence. The Jordan philosophy combines the vineyards’ natural assets with innovative management creating a profound expression of terroir. Jordan Wine Estate – the perfect Synergy between Soul and Soil.

The distinct ravine which embodies Stellenbosch Kloof harnesses all the qualities of a well-orientated compass. Varying elevations and aspects allows us to grow a selection of classic varieties to specific sites that optimise this expression through their location. The cooler south-facing aspect, hosts the more sensitive and aromatic white-skinned grapes varieties. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness on the 8th if April 2022 at approximately 22.5°B

After the grapes were picked the whole bunches were fermented in an open-top tank. Where the grapes were punched down three times a day. Whereafter they were pressed with the stems on. The gentle pressing ensure full-flavoured wines with soft, balanced tannins.
