Winery
Sheltered next to our Franschhoek Kitchen and tasting venue, the Holden Manz Winery features state of the art design which enables our winemaker to fully express the terroir and its fruits in every possible way. With average production sitting at 100 tonnes of manually harvested, high quality grapes, an intimate approach with emphasis on attention to detail is maintained throughout. Smaller tanks allow for separate, small-batch fermentations, while an open-plan barrel cellar provides our winemaker the access to tend to each barrel individually. A smooth flow from delivery to bottling rounds off the winery, minimising handling and shock on the wines another way we ensure our wines arrive in the glass in premium condition exhibiting character and bouquet in all its glory.

The recent addition of 50 kW of solar panels has significantly reduced our energy consumption a big step in our ongoing commitment to sustainable production practises.
