Oldenburg is a must-know name in South African wine, especially for those familiar with the industry. Located in the Banghoek Valley of Stellenbosch, Oldenburg is celebrated not only for producing exceptional wines but also for its stunning tasting room, one of the most beautiful in the Cape. Nestled in a mountain amphitheatre, the estate benefits from one of the region’s coolest microclimates, with growing conditions that are approximately 5 degrees cooler than the rest of Stellenbosch thanks to high altitude and cooling winds.
The CL range represents Oldenburg's Lifestyle collection, cleverly named to highlight its cooler-than-Stellenbosch origin. The name "CL" playfully references the Stellenbosch number plate prefix and degrees Celsius. The range includes both a red and a white blend.
This 'Right Bank' Bordeaux Blend is predominantly Merlot (54%), complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon (39%) and a touch of Cabernet Franc (7%). The grapes were destemmed before fermentation, with the Cabernet varieties crushed and the Merlot kept as whole berries. After fermentation, the wine was pressed using a basket press and underwent malolactic fermentation in tanks before aging for 16 months in French oak barrels, 26% of which were new.
In the glass, it presents a deep purple hue and offers a bouquet of both red and black fruits, enriched by aromatic notes of fennel, rosemary, and freshly tilled earth. On the palate, vibrant acidity and plush tannins carry the fruit through to a long, satisfying finish that will leave you eager for another sip.

New & Exciting
There are very few wine shops as good as Butlers, years of buying wines from them. There is always something new & exciting to pick out off the shelves and if you’re in any doubt the advice is considered and insightful.

Brilliant Butlers!
Words can't express the brilliance of Butlers or the thoughtfulness, expertise and compassion of their team! Whilst packing up to move internationally a friend died and I needed to organise an emergency case of something luscious to support the wake. Not only did their wonderful team organise and deliver within an incredibly tight deadline they drafted a message for me too which I approved. Wonderful!!

Sourcing Stock
Henry and Team managed to locate some difficult to find American wine which they kindly offered and I gratefully accepted. They truly differentiate by being able to surprise by sourcing stock very much outside the run of the mill.

Great Wine/Spirit shop with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff
This was my second visit to Butlers Wine Cellar and on both occasions the service has been wonderful. The young lady assisted me and my wife on a number of purchases of wine and sherry and seemed very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Having tasted them she was spot on with her comments on each bottle. I would highly recommend anyone to use this shop.
