Mullineux Family Wines
We are a small, highly focused Family winery producing a select Family of hand-crafted wines from the granite and shale based terroirs of the Swartland Region of South Africa.
The Swartland is a wild and beautiful place, but one where it is not easy to establish vines.
It is a region that has as much of an influence on the vineyards and people who farm there as the people have on the land itself. This brings to mind what film director David von Ancken has to say about the old American West:
"The primal, universal power of the landscape strips away everything but the truth of men's souls."
In much the same way, we feel the Swartland landscape bares the Souls of grape vines, and in those varieties that can take the ruggedness, true personality of site is revealed.
