Now, they invite you to embark on a journey of taste and time with their exquisite 10-Year Release Wines.

- The highlight of this release is the highly acclaimed 2013 vintage, a year that surpassed all expectations for top-quality red wines. Expertly crafted by Schalk van der Westhuizen, who served as Alto’s winemaker from 2000 to 2015, these wines are a testament to his skill and expertise.
- One of the stars of this release is the Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, a wine that epitomizes complexity, richness, and structure. With captivating flavors of black olive, dark chocolate, and violets, this vintage has received accolades, including a Veritas silver medal and an impressive 90 points in Winemag’s 2023 10-year release report.
- Equally impressive is the Shiraz 2013, a wine that tantalizes the senses with its spicy notes and layers of blackcurrants and prunes. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied character and a well-balanced tannic structure. This vintage has been recognized with a Veritas silver, inclusion in the Shiraz SA top 12, a Gold award at the Syrah du monde, and a Platter’s 4.5-star rating.
To celebrate this milestone, Alto’s winemaker has carefully selected three options, available in limited quantities on their online shop.
