Bill Blatch
"The approach to the vineyard has gone from non-assistance to total involvement, the different parcels now well mapped out, the rootstocks and varieties gradually replanted on the correct soils and the foliage and bunches now manucured all through the season."
Louis-Fabrice Latour
"Only a few years ago did they stop calling me ‘Young Louis’!. My son Louis now has that title! People are always surprised when they meet me that we are still family owned and that I carry the name of the Company."

"The best South African wines easily compete with the best in the world. South African winemakers just need to show a little more confidence, refuse to accept that they are playing catch-up and put their shoulders back."
