Wine information

Opstal’s rich history dates back to 1847 when JC Rossouw acquired the farm De Opstal bij de Fonteine. Just over a century later in 1950, 4th generation Carl Everson decided to continue making his own wine instead of joining the local co-operative winery like many other producers. The estate is now in its 7th Generation, with Attie Louw making fantastic wine across its three labels. Their Sixpence white blend opens with an abundance of citrus notes and white flowers lifted by its vibrant acidity and a well-rounded finish. Packs a punch above its price point and is a wine that easily pleases. A bit of a "no brainer" in our books!

Robin says "Opstal's Sixpence wines are their entry-level range that offer an abundance of appeal. Their white blend can easily accompany a number of delicious lighter styled dishes."
