Such a well put together piece on @Port2PortWine . Bit embarrassing to watch the video, but they really captured the essence of @keermont .
Alex Starey of @keermont talks about where the Stellenbosch Mountain and Helderberg meet, his love of Syrah and Surfing, and KANNIEDOOD. Read the Story & Watch the Video here: bit.ly/KeermontVineyards #Rooted #Keermont #InevitableVintage #kanniedood

Beautiful walk on the farm this evening to check the development of the grapes. Veraison progressing slowly and looks like we are going to have the latest harvest in years. #nofilterneeded #saharvest2021 #stellenbosch #sawine #helderberg #estatewine instagram.com/p/CKjvN4eJT-b/…

Stuck for Christmas wine ideas? @Marble_SA sommeliers @wiek04 and Frans Visser pick companions for turkey, gammon, beef tongue and lamb, plus bubbles to start the day, and a sweet rarity for the divisive dessert that is trifle. Online this coming Tuesday... #DRLW @PicknPay

Year in and year out for a decade now, @keermont wines are a regular buy for me. Great value and very age-able. The Terrasse is virtually our house white. Love @AlexStarey ‘s work. 🍷💪🏼👌🏽

I have bought this exceptional SA🇿🇦Syrah from @keermont every year since the 2009 vintage. Thankfully I bought a double dose of the 2012. Tonight it was again superb. I continue to believe it’s been their best vintage. Respect @AlexStarey ✊🏼🍷👌🏽

If you live outside South Africa, please buy South African wine if you possibly can. We are now completely reliant on exports and this renewed ban on alcohol sales is devastating for the livelihoods of so many who are already struggling after months of restrictions.

#throwbacktuesday Wonderful to catch up with @AlexStarey today @NewWaveSA2019 and taste through a selection of the gorgeous @keermont 2016s - a vintage which - OBVIOUSLY - I was single-handedly responsible for crafting 3.5 years ago 😉 Seriously though, these wines are 👌

Duncan Savage is releasing his new vintages for 2019 today, a range of precise, elegant wines from single vineyards across the Western Cape, all made at his Salt River winery. Most wines are made in very small quantities and are therefore distributed on an allocation basis. – at Johannesburg, South Africa
