About this Item
When one considers the long list of acclaim and reputation built from releasing top quality wines, vintage after vintage, from their restored 220 year old cellar on Paardebosch farm on the slopes of the Paardeberg in the Swartland, it's hard to imagine that David & Nadia Sadie established this brand as recent as 2010 only. The wines are characteristically fine and elegant, expressive of the places they come from. The focus lies on a spectrum of organic, old and dry land bush vine vineyards from different areas with different soil types throughout the Swartland, farmed by like-minded people. Considered one of the 'young guns' during the fine wine revolution of the Swartland, David's wines are now considered among the best in the region and beyond.
David & Nadia is a family owned Swartland Winery who have quickly become one of the best white wine producers in South Africa. Made from fifty-year-old vines, in minute quantities in the Western Swartland, it carries the Certified Heritage Vineyards seal. Hoë-Steen’s unique character, purity and presence has seen it gain critical acclaim across the world.

Critics Ratings
‘Superb complexity and textural finesse. This has a Grand Cru feel to the wine, plush concentration, focused yellow fruit concentration and harmonious acids, amazing balance and a delicious white pear, pineapple pastille finish. Wow.’ – Greg Sherwood MW, 96/100 (Jun 2019)
‘Firm and obviously very structured. Extremely complex. Clean, majestic and racy. Bone dry and transparent. Great wine.’ – Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Aug 2018)
‘Off 50 year old bushvines with unusually tall shoots, hence ‘High Chenin’, this typically richer than single-vineyard sibling. Refined 2016 has customary restrained pear & wet wool aromas, intense bruised apple flavours, with harmonious length & extraordinary presence.’ - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 5* (95/100)
