About
Hemel-en-Aarde is Afrikaans for “heaven and earth” and the claim is justified. Our estate sits on a particularly heavenly stretch of land beneath a lofty peak of the Babylon’s Tower mountain range. In addition to its unrelenting beauty, Ataraxia is home to some of the most spectacular terroirs South Africa has to offer. In 2004, The Skyfields Farm was visioned into the Ataraxia wine label when husband and wife, Kevin and Hanli Grant and a few friends purchased this 47-hectare prime vineyard property. Almost two decades on, we are associated with crafting wines of incredible finesse, balance and depth; wines that proudly hold their own on the international wine stage.
Product Features
- Our cool-climate, alchemy-free unwooded white wine celebrates the virtues of elegance, vivacity and finesse.
- Most importantly, the Sauvignon Blanc grape is merely the chosen vehicle to express the free-draining Table Mountain Sandstone and Cape Granite soils on which the vines are planted.
- This wine favours individuality and minerality ahead of pure, pungent fruit, but still shows hints of passion fruit and citrus as well as green melon aromas.
- These are effortlessly reflected on the palate and are complemented by a lively acidity that underpins a classy structure and succulent texture.
- A wine of substantial poise, length and charm.
- Pairs beautifully with fresh seafood and poultry.

Keep it Simple
Phases, trends, fads... call them what you want, they've been around forever - and won't be going anywhere in a hurry. Of course, it never takes us long to find something new to obsess about as other things make their way out, and some make their way back in - like low rise jeans and middle-partings.
Health and beauty trends are much the same, like when putting mayonnaise in your hair was considered an excellent conditioner - as long as fellow passengers on the bus didn't sit close enough to smell you and think their lunchbox was leaking. Or using egg on your skin as a natural tightener.
Keep the eggs and mayo for breakfast, and stick to the tried and trusted basics. Like good old fashioned sunscreen. Just like our deal on NIVEA Sun. It never goes out of style!
