About this Item
The Piekenierskloof took its name from the piekeniers (foot soldiers) who were located at the top of the pass of the mountain to protect the lifestock in this part of the old Cape Colony from theft, hence this parcel of vines being named Soldaat (Soldier). This pure Grenache on granite soils is often said to have a nose 'reminiscent of an old Rayas'. Forming part of Sadie's Old Vine Series, only 350 cases were produced.
