Momento began in 2013 while Marelise Niemann was winemaker at Beaumont Family Wines in Botrivier.
She has since become known for wines of purity, elegance and honesty, working with old vines in Botrivier, Swartland and Piekenierskloof, putting terroir front and centre. The first winemaker in South Africa to make 4 individual, site specific Grenache Noirs.
Marelise has a deep understanding of soils and her particular love for Grenache is evident when she starts speaking of the variety. That first vintage was two barrels of Grenache Noir and her love affair with the grape has deepened; she now works with Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris and 4 different Grenache Noir sites.
The new vintages from Marelise will release in September and we offer you the opportunity to taste these new wines with Marelise in a tutored tasting format.
