ALHEIT VINEYARDS WESTERN CAPE, SOUTH AFRICA

Chris & Suzaan Alheit are a husband and wife team. They have traveled and worked harvest together in California’s Napa Valley, Western Australia, St. Emilion, the Clare Valley & the Mosel River. Their love for adventure overseas has led them to New Zealand, Languedoc, Rousillon, Provence, the Northern & Southern Rhone & the Cyclades in Greece. They strive in their winemaking to apply lessons learned in Europe to what they do in the Cape. The Alheits’ aim is to make wines that have a fine form and are not bulky. The result is finely crafted wines that have ample power, but no excess weight.
