Rotsbank is Chenin Blanc from a shallow, rocky vineyard on Paardeberg’s Aprilskloof, where vines dig deep into granite. Whole-bunch pressed and aged 12 months on lees in old foudres, the wine is bottled with minimal sulfur to preserve site transparency.

The 2024 shows classic granitic austerity—tight, linear, and quietly powerful. It’s a newer addition to Sadie’s lineup but already stands out for its focus and mineral depth.

More about Sadie Family Wines

Eben Sadie is basically the philosophical heart of the Swartland—obsessed with terroir, determined to prove South Africa deserves respect. His flagship Columella is one of the best red wines from South Africa, blended from Rhône varieties and aged in concrete amphorae, eggs, cubes, and old oak. Organic and biodynamic farming, natural yeasts, a basket press. All decisions made to let the soil speak. This is serious winemaking.
