R340.00
A true reflection of Elgin Pinot Noir, produced in a fresh style with vibrant fruit notes and an earthy core backed up by a delicate and restrained oak character. Sour cherries, wild berries, baking spices and a fine savoury tension supported by silky tannins and a refreshing acidity produce a refined and elegant Pinot Noir. Will gain complexity with careful cellaring over the next 10 years.
Winemaker: Koen Roose of Spioenkop in Elgin

A successful craft beer business, started by friends, inevitably lead to some delicious wine.
In 2011 Dan Badenhorst, the Dr, and entrepreneur friend Russell Boltman started Devil’s Peak Beer Co. They secured the expertise of JC Steyn, who was at the time making wine, to become their brewer. The three gents of course share the love for good wine, fast forward to 2023 and the search for grapes and winemakers to collaborate with kicked off.
The maiden release of Dr Good Vine is from the 2023 harvest with Pinot Noir and a White Blend from Elgin, and a Syrah with fruit from Polkadraai and Ceres Plateau.
