De Grendel Three Spades Cider

De Grendel translates to 'the latch' in Dutch. The farm earned this name as early settlers travelling from the interior of the Cape had to follow roads to the farm before heading towards the city & the harbour, thus it became known as gate or the latch to the City. Located on the foothills of the Tygerberg mountain, a mere 20 minute drive from Cape Town, it is one of the closet Wine Estates to the City. In the early 2000's the farm was given a brand new wine cellar, during the design phase Sir David Graaff had the architect consult a Taiwanese Geomancer resulting in what we believe to be the only Feng Shui wine cellar in the country! The estate has earned a reputation for producing exceptional red wines including their flagship Bordeaux-style red blend the Rubaiyat and Sauvignon Blanc.
