For those who appreciate the finer things in life, Alto Wine Estate has unveiled something truly special—a wine crafted not just for the moment but for the ages.
Meet the M.P.H.S. Limited Release, a tribute to the remarkable winemakers who shaped Alto’s legacy: Manie Malan, Piet du Toit, Hempies du Toit, and Schalk van der Westhuizen.
Their initials form the name, but their expertise, dedication, and passion form the soul of this wine.
- Only produced in exceptional years and in very limited quantities, the 2018 vintage is a carefully curated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc—two iconic varietals that thrive in the famed Helderberg region of Stellenbosch. The result? A wine of elegance, depth, and undeniable character.
From the first swirl in the glass, the aromatic nose captivates with notes of dark berries, tomato leaf, and hints of interwoven fynbos. On the palate, layers of plum, blackcurrant, and silky tannins unfold, leading to a finish that lingers long after the last sip. The delicate whispers of leather, cigar, and spice add to its complexity, making it a true collector’s gem.
This is not just a wine—it’s a time capsule of excellence, a bottle that will age beautifully for the next 10 to 15 years. Whether you’re looking to add a standout to your cellar or uncork something unforgettable for a special occasion, M.P.H.S. is an investment in perfection. With only a select few able to claim a bottle, the question is—will you be one of them?
