Bartinney Private Cellar Wine
Bartinney is set on the
dramatic slopes of
Botmaskop alongside the
Helshoogte Pass overlooking
the picturesque Banhoek
Valley in Stellenbosch.
Established in 1912,
Bartinney has been in the
Jordaan family since 1953.
Now Rose and Michael
Jordaan tend to the 28
hectare farm, with a vision to
create excellent wines and
reawaken the charm of the
historic land.
Creating excellence in wine
has not been a singular
pursuit. Our belief is that
every aspect must work in
harmony: agriculture with
nature, people with animals,
sustainability with
excellence. The old vines are
planted to a height of 550m
above sea level and with
slopes as steep as 45
degrees, creating wines that
have exceptional expression
and character. Small
pockets of low yielding, hand-
tended Sauvignon Blanc and
Chardonnay vineyards offer
up perfect fruit on the cooler
elevated slopes. On the
slightly lower foothills of the
Botmaskop mountains the
Cabernet Sauvignon
vineyards are tended to. The
perfect conditions to grow
grapes with a balance of rich
and mineral characters.
The winged figure depicted
on each bottle is
called ‘Elevage’ and
symbolises the French art of
the selective maturing and
ascension of a wine to its
ultimate heights, unfurling
its most noble traits. This
idea is embodied in the team
work, small-lot artisanal craft
and gentle methods, relied
upon to create excellence
year-on-year.
World renowned sculptor
Dylan Lewis’ magnificent
sculpture, ‘Elevage’,
iconically resides in the
acclaimed fynbos gardens,
resembling the winged figure
of the Bartinney logo.
Additionally, landscape artist,
Strydom van der Merwe,
helped establish a two
hectare land art form
of ‘Elevage’ in fynbos in the
Hourglass Chardonnay
vineyard. Visible from an
aeroplance, this is the first of
its kind in the world – a
fitting tribute to Biodiversity
and Sustainability.
Bartinney wines are enjoyed
at The Tasting Shed on
Bartinney Estate, or at the
Bartinney Wine and
Champagne Bar in the heart
of Stellenbosch, where
guests regularly spill onto
Bird Street glasses in hand. |
