Francois Haasbroek Rockview Far Side White 2022
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll give you your money back. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
Francois' exclusive white blend from premium old vines he's been itching to get his hands on for years
'We were interested in making a uniquely South African blend that combines grapes that are very rarely seen together. After some thought we decided on going "over the mountain" to Slanghoek Valley, to track down the perfect grapes.
Here, Colombard and Chenin blanc have reigned supreme for decades, and it seemed to me they were just begging to be put to use in a new, experimental white wine. Thanks Angels for allowing us to dabble!
The charm of Colombard is that it's deceptively light and springy on its feet whilst simultaneously packing a full and flavoursome punch. Expect flavours of pear drops, flower petals and hints of lime cordial, ample freshness and a crisp defined finish.'

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Francois Haasbroek
- Francois has worked for some of the world’s most iconic brands, including Dry Creek Vineyard in Sonoma, Jackson Estate in Marlborough, and Waterford Estate back home in Stellenbosch.
- His real passion however, is seeking out under the radar parcels to craft boutique wines - so in 2014 he ditched the high-flying day job to turn his hand to making the next great underground wine.
- Francois now focuses exclusively on creating high quality, single-vineyard wines from small-scale sites hidden away all over the Western Cape. He built long lasting relationships with the growers and made wines true to their site of origin, with as little human jiggery-pokery as possible.
