GlenWood is a very special place. Located in the little-known
valley of Robertsvlei, a few kilometres from Franschhoek,
close to Cape Town, the farm is surrounded by aspects
of outstanding natural beauty.
Using only the best materials and sustainable viticultural
practices, we have developed the farm over the past
twenty seven years, winning numerous awards for our
vineyards and our hand-crafted wines.
Our credo, "simple, natural, quality", pervades
our thinking across all parts of the business; simple,
be it architecture, label design or the way we approach
decisions; natural, be it the farming practices we use,
the wine making process itself, or the replanting of
indigenous fynbos throughout the farm; quality, be it
of the grapes we produce, the wines we vinify, or the
human relationships we foster on and off the farm.
We are delighted to be partnering with
Sensei who runs Okamai,
a unique Japanese and sushi eatery, and who is undoubtedly
the top sushi chef in Franschhoek. The cuisine is based
on Wakon yosai, an idea of adopting and applying Western
learning and knowledge in conformity with native Japanese
cultural traditions. The pairing of sushi with our white
wines is simply outstanding.
