Jolandie Fouche, Wolf & Woman Pinotage 2022

An old 1973 planted vineyard on 100% decomposed granite soils. 90% of the site is (cool) south facing and 10% is on a higher rockier ridge, where exposure to the wind means smaller berries. Jolandie employs a three day cold soak to extract the sweetest fruit. Fermentation is spontaneous and just one punch down a day by traditional, gentle foot stomping is carried out. Cuvaison is short: just two weeks on skins. 15% whole cluster and 85% whole berries.

A bright, exciting young producer whose approach and attitude immediately instils confidence. Rarer though, is realising that they have yet to release their first vintage and their delicious, characterful and terroir driven wines are still a tiny, part-time project. For the time being at least. Well, this is exactly what happened when we met Jolandie Fouché in 2019. A Swartland native, Fouche’s goal is to produce wines that reflect her origins in a style.
