Who makes it

Kruishof Winery stands at Agter Groenberg in Wellington, where Bengt and Cecilia Kvarnbäck acquired the 355-hectare north-facing farm in 2008. Its 1.02-hectare Shiraz block, planted in 2010 on a slope of decomposed Malmesbury shale, granite and loamy sand, lies within a property with 255 hectares of natural habitat.

What they make

Listed wines include Ymer 2016 and Ymer 2018, both Coastal Region red wines. Each is documented as a single-block Shiraz.
