About
Guardian Peak is named after the towering peak on Stellenbosch Mountain. It was founded in 1998 by Jean Engelbrecht, who combined his knowledge of international wine markets with his experience at his family wine estate in Stellenbosch to create a range of everyday-drinking, fresh and approachable wines. Two decades later, Guardian Peak pride themselves on producing sustainable wines of consistent quality that are friendly and easy to enjoy.
Product Features
- SMG: Syrah Mourvèdre Grenache
- Grapes were selected from various vineyards that are located in the Stellenbosch region, Breedekloof and Piekenierskloof.
- The grapes are fermented in open-top fermentation tanks with daily pump-overs and punchdowns.
- Each variety is individually vinified. A period of post-fermentation maceration is encouraged for a gentle extraction of tannin and to soften existing tannins.
- Half of the Grenache undergoes whole bunch fermentation to enhance the ripe red fruit flavours of the grape.
- The wine is transferred to 300L French oak barrels for 18 months.

Making a cup of tea for someone is a more complicated process than you first think.
Which way are we leaning: Rooibos or regular? Milk: yes or no? The standard sugar inquiry, a two-part question if the first answer is yes.
And if you have your black belt in tea-making, one final question concerning the tea bag: in or out?
How are you supposed to remember that all if you're making tea for, oh say, 3 people?
It doesn't concern today's deals at all, but we had to think about something while we waited for the kettle to boil.
