From Alluvia, located on the summit of the Helshoogte in Stellenbosch. A straw wine, produced from bunches of Viognier grapes, picked perfectly ripe but then allowed to desiccate slowly on straw mats for a period of several weeks which helps to concentrate both the sugar and acidity before the grapes are crushed and fermented.

‘Liberated’ by Rick, the alter ego of Master of Wine, Richard Kelley. Rick is confounded by the number of great wines that are resigned to being blended away or disposed of in bulk. It might be an occasional experimental batch, or possibly an interesting off-cut from some proud winemaker’s latest premium release. Whatever their provenance, it’s his mission as The Liberator to procure these precious vinous orphans and consign them to a better home.
