Our Wines
The M'hudi Wines project is a very personal journey for our family. The vineyard lies in a valley with deep table Mountain sandstone soils over clay. The valley floor is very hot in summer but is regularly cooled by morning mists and vigorous doses of the Cape Doctor (renowned Cape Town South-Easterly wind) in the afternoons. We use the grapes from our vineyard to make the wines, but to ensure quality we also source grapes from areas best known for the cultivars.
