High-quality wines from Kuumba

Kuumba is a winery located in the Western Cape, South Africa, founded in 2003 by South African winemaker Bertus Fourie. The winery is named after the Swahili word "kuumba," meaning "creativity." This is precisely what the winery stands for: creating innovative and high-quality wines with respect for nature. Bertus Fourie is one of South Africa's most awarded winemakers and is known as "Mr. Coffee Pinotage" for his iconic Pinotage wine. He has turned his passion for winemaking into a career and now has over 30 years of experience in the wine industry. What makes this Chardonnay truly unique is the way it's produced. The grapes are hand-picked and fermented in oak barrels, resulting in a rich and complex flavor. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, giving it its signature vanilla notes.
