Croydon Vineyards
The Croydon Vineyard lies between Stellenbosch and Somerset West. From the 8ha vineyard, Croydon wines are highly regarded internationally and have received a number of awards including Gold medals for their Covenant Chenin Blanc, Covenant Shiraz and the Covenant Cabernet Sauvignon.
Croydon's winemaker focuses on climate, soil and the terrain. The “Cape of Storms” climate has shaped the soil, the vine behavior and the berry composition. The vineyards also benefit from a diverse landscape with heavy clay subsoil in some parts of the vineyard and sandy soil with a high water table in others.
The Covenant range showcases superior wines from single cultivars. These wines are created from the purest grapes of the season and left to mature into well-balanced and full-bodied wines. The key to Croydon's success is capturing the perfections nurtured by nature and the viticulturist in the vineyards, ensuring this is bottled and suitably matured. The end result is a distinct experience in wine.
