Black Elephant Vintners was born out of synchronicity, fortuitous friendships and a love for wine. Black Elephant Vintners is an independent wine producer that strives to demystify wines to all enthusiasts and offer wine experiences without the pomp and ceremony commonly associated with the industry. To this end, we introduce fun into serious winemaking whilst capturing the taste and terroir of th

e Franschhoek valley in our wines. Our diverse brand portfolio enables us to provide a range of wines with unique physical characteristics that appeal to different desires, tastes and occasions. It is our firm intent to ensure that our wines and brands are exciting, premium and distinctive at all times. Our wines originate from, and are produced under, the “Wine of Origin Franschhoek” banner. The exception to this is our incomparable Back Roads label, whose philosophy is to produce wines from carefully selected vineyards, blocks and grapes that display unique and exceptional potential – be it in or beyond the borders of Franschhoek. Our wines represent our sincerest endeavours to bring the Franschhoek experience to all wine lovers for the sole purpose of enjoyment and as an expression of our appreciation for our good life.

Somewhere out there a few hundred people are buying rosé today and you are not one of them. 🦩
The Fox & The Flamingo 2026 went to past buyers first. It opens to everyone tomorrow at 9am.
No hard feelings. Join the list and next time you are the one being smug about it.

At nine this morning, we emailed everyone who bought the last Fox & The Flamingo and told them that 2026 is here. 🦩
They have it to themselves until Saturday.
You cannot buy it today. That is not a tease; it is just how things work around here: the people who showed up for a wine get first call on the next one.
Saturday, 9 am, it opens to everyone.
If you would rather not read about it next time, Sign Up to Keep Up, and that is the only queue we run.

We don't chase medals. Shiraz SA gave us one anyway.
Free Bird Bush Vine Red Blend — TOP 5 RED BLENDS.
Three of the six bottles in the R1,999 Fully Loaded case are that wine, at the same price it has been since 27 July. We did not reprice it on the back of an award, and we are not going to.
Closes 31 August.

We don't do "older is better."
A vintage is just the year the weather happened.
Today you can taste two of them side by side — Amazing Grace 2020 vs 2021.
The vault's open. List gets first pick.

Fully Loaded, midway check: this draw is nowhere near as busy as it should be.

Which is entirely your advantage. One Candy DiVino, 58 bottles of Free Bird already in it, and not many names in the hat.

R1,999 for a mixed case — three Red Blend, three Chenin, free delivery. One case, one entry. Twelve bottles, three entries.

Closes 31 August. Winner drawn 1 September.

There are seven entries in the Free Bird Fridge draw.
Seven. That is the whole draw, sixteen days in. We are telling you because a draw where you cannot see the odds is not a draw worth entering.
A mixed case of Free Bird is R1,999, delivered free, and every case is one entry. Twelve bottles get you three. Closes 31 August, winner drawn 1 September.
Your odds get worse every time someone reads this. Sorry.
