    The Yellow Cellar range of single-varietal and blended wines, both red wine and white wine, features The Cape White, a classic Chenin Blanc, with aromas of ripe guava infused with delicate spice. Zingy tropical fruit and crisp acidity make for a lively and lasting pallet.

    The Cape Red, a Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz blend is a red wine full of the goodness of the Capes nature; ripe red berry fruit and a hint of spice. The Cape Red wine is soft round and easy drinking. The Yellow Cellar selection consists of fruit-driven wines - well rounded and distinctly South African – at unmatched value for money. The range includes barrique matured Shiraz and Pinotage as well as a steel tank fermented Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc.

     

    “The ward of Wellington has shed its Sleepy Hollow image with some promising wines... Recognised for Shiraz and gutsy red blends generally.” - John Platter South African Wine Guide 2004
