The name "Quoin Rock" found its inspiration from the Agulhas area, the most southern tip of Africa, where Quoin Point is the second most southerly point. The Quoin Rock Winery in Stellenbosch honours some of the early trading ships that sunk while trying to navigate the southern tip of Africa, by naming some of the wine after known wrecks off Quoin Point, while utilizing the Agulhas property for conservation. Bontebok, Springbok and Eland are some of the Antelope that have been reintroduced to this area. The winery will focus on producing high quality wines, attracting guests to a new state-of-the-art tasting centre, functions venue and guesthouse. Renovations are due for completion by end 2017 and guests will be able to experience the remarkable make-over as from 2018. Beautifully made 2015 red wines and lovely fruit-expressive 2017 white wines will be available for our guests. Yes, even the ever-popular Vine Dried Sauvignon Blanc (sweet) and MCC will be available again. In the meantime we'll keep our friends updated with regular posts. Thanks for being patient with us!!

WOMEN & W**E | THE GHOST 👻🍷

Some w**es are made to become part of a range.
Others are created only when nature gives you something exceptional.

In our latest Women & W**e conversation, Carrie Adams, Siobhan Thompson and Winnie Bowman discover one of Quoin Rock’s most extraordinary creations — Ghost Cabernet Franc 2019.

A w**e that spent 24 months in new French oak, followed by another four years of maturation in bottle. Big, bold and beautifully complex, revealing layers of spice, dark chocolate and the unmistakable character of Cabernet Franc.

But Ghost is about much more than taste.

As Denis explains, the idea was to create an “analogue w**e in a digital world” — something rare, uncompromised and impossible to reproduce exactly.

Every Ghost is different.

The 2017 Ghost was Cabernet Sauvignon.
The 2019 Ghost is Cabernet Franc.
And the next Ghost will only exist when the vineyard gives us grapes worthy of becoming one.

There is no obligation to produce it every year. No commercial calendar to follow. Quality decides when Ghost appears.

It is w**e as craftsmanship — where business never comes before excellence.

And judging by the reactions of our Women & W**e guests, this Ghost certainly left its mark.

Rare. Bold. Uncompromising.
The Ghost by Quoin Rock. 👻🍷

THREE WOMEN IN W**E. FIVE CAP CLASSIQUES. ONE IMPOSSIBLE QUESTION. 🥂✨

During a beautiful conversation between Carrie Adams, Siobhan Thompson of W**es of South Africa, and Winnie Bowman, one question was asked:

“After tasting all five Quoin Rock Cap Classiques, which one is your favourite?”

The answer? Almost impossible to choose.

Because each Quoin Rock MCC has its own character, its own moment and its own occasion.

🥂 Festive Series — youthful, vibrant and effortless. A Cap Classique made for celebrations, spontaneous lunches and those moments when you simply feel like opening bubbles.

🌸 Brut Rosé — elegant, alluring and beautifully expressive. Dry, delicate and memorable — a Rosé with its own unmistakable personality.

✨ Blanc de Blancs — refined, precise and sophisticated, expressing the purity and elegance of Chardonnay.

🖤 Black Series — complex, distinctive and created for those who appreciate depth, craftsmanship and individuality.

🥂 Brut Reserve 2015 — eight years on the lees. A Cap Classique of extraordinary maturity and complexity. As Winnie described it, this is the bottle you imagine opening for a black-tie evening, a milestone anniversary or one of life's truly special occasions.

And perhaps that is the answer.

There doesn't have to be one favourite.

Each bottle has its own niche. Its own personality. Its own moment.

At Quoin Rock, we have created five distinctive expressions of South African Cap Classique — from light-hearted celebration to profound, age-worthy elegance.

QUOIN ROCK — A HOUSE OF CAP CLASSIQUE.

Five expressions. Five personalities. Five different occasions.

Which one is yours? 🥂

QUOIN ROCK. FIND YOUR FAVOURITE WAY TO DISAPPEAR. 🥂✨

Quoin Rock is not only about exceptional w**e — although, with around 15 different w**es to discover, finding your favourite may require some very serious research. 😉

Quoin Rock is about luxury. Excellence. And the beautiful art of switching off.

Perhaps your perfect escape is beside the swimming pool at the Manor House — a glass of bubbly in one hand, oysters within reach, and absolutely no reason to check the time.

Perhaps it is a beautiful Red Blend over a long, relaxed fine-dining lunch at Quartz, overlooking the vineyards and Simonsberg.

Or perhaps you are a true w**e connoisseur, disappearing into our W**e Lounge to discover the Ghost Range — rare reserve w**es that cannot be bought online, found in retail, or simply ordered anywhere else. Some secrets are meant to remain at Quoin Rock. 🍷

Here, everyone finds their own little corner of indulgence.

A table.
A view.
A w**e.
A moment.

Your favourite niche. Your private shelter from the noise and rush of everyday life.

Come to disconnect from the world for a while — and reconnect with everything that makes life beautiful.

QUOIN ROCK. YOUR ESCAPE INTO EXCELLENCE.

OCTOBER IS NOT ONLY THE START OF A NEW SEASON — IT’S THE ANTICIPATION OF A WELL-DESERVED ESCAPE. ✨🥂The time to slow down...

OCTOBER IS NOT ONLY THE START OF A NEW SEASON — IT’S THE ANTICIPATION OF A WELL-DESERVED ESCAPE. ✨🥂

The time to slow down. To spoil yourself and your friends. To surrender to the beauty of the vineyards, the taste of exceptional w**es, long lunches and the little moments that make life beautiful.

And, of course, to step into the fairytale of Quoin Rock. 🍇✨

GIRLS! THE TIME HAS COME! 🥂💃 Gather your favourite people and escape to the W**elands.
