TerroirOn a clay-limestone terroir close to the sea, this 5-hectare vineyard benefits from generous sunshine. Sea, earth, and sun live in symbiosis here, giving rise to unique white wines. The Kalahari cuvée is the result of several years of research, both in viticulture and in winemaking and aging. Kalahari offers a different interpretation of our Cassis terroir.
