Audacia Farm
The Golden Triangle, Stellebosch rural
24 hectares
Price: ZAR58,000,000.00
Location
This amazing farm is located in the Golden Triangle of Stellenbosch, Situated close to the busy R44 Highway.
So what makes this such a top wine growing area?
The secret lies in the diversity of the soil types as well as the growing climate. Elevation ranges from 60 to 400 meters above sea level and the soil types found in the area includes granite, shale, sandstone and clay.
The combination of these different soils have both great water holding capacity as well as drainage; making it possible for producers to administer a dry-land viticulture method (when no irrigation is used) or micro-irrigation (e.g. drip or trickle irrigation).
Since this growing area is situated close to the False Bay the vines benefit from the cooling ocean breezes, producing smaller berries with optimum ripeness, concentration of fruit flavour, lively acidity in white wines and colour and smooth tannins in red wines.
According to The New York Times 2008 60% of South Africa’s top wines came from the Golden Triangle.
