Old vines and howling wolves
A family farm on the shaded side of the Groenberg in Wellington, with old vines we feel lucky to look after.
Wolves' Corner has never had a wolf.
The farm was first granted in the 17th century and named Wolvenhoek. The name comes from the south-easter, which funnels between the vines and the mountain and echoes like a howl.
Wellington is warm, but our vines grow on the western side of the Groenberg. The sun has to climb over the mountain first, so the vines stay in the shade longer and start each day cool. The vines have been here for decades. The label is young: our first vintage was 2021.
