We are very pleased to offer this delightful mixed trio from Cape Wild. These South African wines from the Western Cape are crafted with minimal intervention, in their Wild House style, which they playfully call 'lazy winemaking. This range of wild-ferment wines captures the Cape’s classic varietals with a vibrant, textural character.
The grapes, from a single vineyard in Paarl, are gently crushed and naturally fermented without additives. Fermentation takes place 80% in tank and 20% in seasoned French oak barrels, with partial malolactic fermentation. The wine then ages on fine lees for 9 months, undergoing no fining and only coarse filtration.
On the nose, it’s fresh and expressive, featuring bright citrus and stone fruit aromas with a touch of subtle, spicy oak. The palate is ripe and textured, with vibrant fruit balanced by crisp acidity and savoury, toasty notes from lees ageing and barrel fermentation.
Sourced from established, trellised vineyards in Paarl’s deep sandy loams, all fruit is hand-harvested and gently crushed, with some whole bunches added to bring a fresh, leafy note to the juice. Natural fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in 300- and 600-litre barrels. A hint of Franschhoek Syrah introduces a subtle layer of white spice to the final blend.
The wine presents a bright ruby hue with an inviting nose of ripe plum and cherry. On the palate, rich plum flavours are complemented by a lifted, layered finish, with a touch of toasty oak adding depth.
The Shiraz grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted, with 50% of the blend undergoing malolactic fermentation in 300- and 600-liter French oak barrels (10% new oak) after natural fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
Aromas of summer pudding, ripe black cherry, vanilla, and a hint of framboise invite you in. The palate reveals layers of rich black fruits, smoky undertones, and a touch of dark chocolate and star anise. Youthful acidity and balanced tannins lead to a fresh, layered finish with depth and complexity.
We think these are generous, yet elegant wines which punch above their weight. Try them whilst you can.

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.
