About Me

My photo
Yonder Hill, a boutique winery, nestles up against the Helderberg just off the R44 between Stellenbosch and Somerset West. This 13 hectare farm is owned by the Naude. The farm is known for its soft and easy-drinking style of wines and concentrates on the Red cultivars which the Helderberg region is famous for. Our classic range, Nicola, Merlot, and Inanda enjoys local and international acclaim. We have introduced a value-for-money range consisting of Y-Merlot, Y-Shiraz and Y-Sauvignon Blanc. Both the wine and Olyfberg olive products can comfortably be described as young, frisky, approachable and friendly, just like the people working on the Estate - and sales over the past few years have proven the wines' popularity with the South African market. Come and visit Yonder Hill to enjoy peace and harmony; taste our Wines and Olyfberg products. You are sure to experience a uniqueness and a special sense of something that leaves you feeling uplifted.

Inanda 2007


The Inanda is a Bordeaux blend which will impress even the most picky of wine drinkers.
There are typical notes on the nose of red and black berries, hints of chocolate and nut all tied together with ripe mature fruit.
In the mouth it lives up to expectations. A light mint tone underscored by complex combination of black berries, cassis and plums.
A smattering of walnuts and a burst of French vanilla oak add to the depth.
Well matured but could run for 3 - 4 more years. Thus is a true bargain so please don’t delay

VINEYARDS


Vineyards are thirteen years old and planted on the northern slopes of the farm. The vines are trained onto a five-wire trellis system to maximise exposure to the sunlight and sea breeze. The use of minimal handling and insecticides shows our approach towards enviro-friendly farming methods.


SOILS


Deep fertile Oakleaf or Clovelly soil. The 20 to 30 cm of decomposed granite becomes a good mixture of sand to sand-lime-clay soil medium. It is then followed by 50 to 60 cm of wet zone, as a result of limited amounts of clay, with apparent granite origin.


WINEMAKING


The berries ripened in different stages during the time of harvest. The cultivars fermented separately in separate stainless steel tanks. After gentle-pressing malolactic was encouraged in the finest 225 lt French oak barrels where it matured for 22 months.


GENERAL


A complex nose, tar, chocolate, coffee, cassis, cherry and mulberry nose. Complex structure, long mid-palate and rich finish. Excellent balance. A classic. Drink now or cellar for 5 to 7 years.
