Keermont Estate
Keermont Vineyards is a boutique wine estate dramatically situated on some of the world's most ancient soils on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain in the famous vinous region of Stellenbosch.

In the eyes of Vinous's Neal Martin, "Winemaker Alex Starey has steered this Stellenbosch producer into the top league in recent years".
Their aim, to produce wines that reflect the natural wonder and beauty of their remarkable position is an ambitious one, but they have managed to craft a stable of wines that convey a world-class pedigree combined with a uniquely Stellenbosch signature. Martin has been quick to note the exceptional quality of wines released by Keermont Estate in recent years, whilst also highlighting the immense talent of their superstar winemaker.

Vinous (95)The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is blended with 7% Malbec and 6% Cabernet Franc and spent 22 months in seasoned French oak. It has a classy bouquet of expressive red berry fruit, cedar and light undergrowth aromas that leans toward the Left Bank. The palate is medium-bodied with great sapidity right from the start. The tannins are extremely fine here, and the finish fans out gloriously with just enough bite to tempt you back for another sip. This is an outstanding Cabernet from winemaker Alex Starey. |

Tim Atkin MW (95)This world-class Syrah hails from a 0.7-hectare parcel planted on a ridge in 2005. Made with no stems in 2016 – the wine normally sees 15% whole bunches - it's like a Cape Côte Rôtie, all perfume, nuance and texture, with notes of ginger spice, barbecued meat and some ferrous grip. 2021-28 |
