A serendipitous combination of climate, soils, topography, and abundant water from the life-giving Breede River enables the Alvi’s Drift vineyards to produce distinctive, award-winning South African wines of singular character and complexity.

Scattered across a network of adjoining farms in the cooler, southernmost part of the fertile Breede River Valley, our vineyards lie nestled among indigenous renosterveld, succulent Karoo vegetation, and fynbos.

For Alvi, the winemaker, and his team, the location of each vineyard is a matter of meticulous planning, ensuring the most beneficial terroir for each grape varietal cultivated on the land.
