This brilliant straw-coloured wine has a complex nose dominated by nectarine and peach, with notes of fresh cream, vanilla pod and hints of roasted cashew. Elegant, rich and velvety, this wine boasts a full and complex palate, with ripe fruit characters following through from the nose, and fan-tailing out to a lingering finish.

Producer Information

Alvi’s Drift wine is produced at the family owned Alvi’s Drift Private Cellar. Situated on the banks of the Breede River in the Western Cape of South Africa, it has been owned and operated by the van der Merwe family since 1928. The founder of the business was Albertus Viljoen (Alvi to his friends) van der Merwe. After Alvi build a ford across the Breede River to allow better access to the family business, locals started to call the ford “Alvi’s Drift”. This ford now gives it names to one of South Africa’s newest and most exciting wine labels.
