“Girl Next Door now uses grapes from two small, Atlantic Ocean-influenced parcels on the Cape Peninsula, and you can almost smell the waves here. Pure, elegant and ethereal, it’s a Syrah for Pinot Noir lovers, with 50% whole bunches, negligible wood, aromas of seaweed, white pepper and petrichor and tangy plum, wild strawberry and blackberry fruit.”
This surfer-turned winemaking maestro established the stellar, Platter’s Wine Guide-wowing reputation of Cape Point Vineyards with his stellar Sauvignons. That was until 2016, when he boldly struck out alone to make the wines he always wanted to. Throughout his time at Cape Point, Duncan grew to understand coastal sites, and has continued to seek out maritime and high elevation sites across the Western Cape. Today his wines are in huge demand.
This is Duncan’s most exclusive wine, made from two tiny parcels.
