Just outside Paarl, in the heart of the Cape Winelands, is where you would find Ridgeback Wines. A place where bold flavours, history and the spirit of adventure come together in every bottle. Named after the Ridgeback dogs that roam the estate, these wines embody the same tenacity, strength and character as the remarkable breed they are named after.
The estate offers two exceptional tastings. The Signature Tasting is a perfect introduction to their range. The Ridgeback Viognier is a vibrant, floral white with notes of ripe stone fruit and a creamy finish. The Ridgeback Cabernet Franc is structured and elegant, layered with dark berries and subtle spice.
For those who love bold blends, the Ridgeback Signature S brings together Shiraz, Mourvèdre and Grenache in a rich, full-bodied expression, while the Ridgeback Signature C offers a Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, balancing complexity and smoothness in every sip.
For those looking to explore Ridgeback’s finest, the Premium Tasting is a must. The Ridgeback Chenin Blanc is fresh and lively, packed with tropical fruit and citrus zest. Ridgeback The Journey tells a story of elegance and depth, blending Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot in perfect harmony. The Ridgeback Merlot is plush and velvety, bursting with juicy red berries and a touch of spice. Ridgeback Shiraz is dark and powerful, full of peppery spice and smoky undertones. And finally, the Ridgeback Cabernet Sauvignon is a true classic, rich, intense and structured, a wine that commands attention.
With breathtaking vineyard views and a wine experience as bold and unforgettable as the Ridgeback itself, this is a place you will not want to miss. Come for the wine, stay for the story, and leave with a new favourite bottle or two.
