Discover the special age worthy wines of De Trafford in Stellenbosch and Sijnn in Malgas with Cape Winemaker's Guild member David Trafford.
Join us for a very special evening of South African fine wine and food with winemaker David Trafford at Cellar Door Wines in St Albans.
Set on the spectacular Mont Fleur family farm in the Helderberg, Stellenbosch architect turned winemaker, David Trafford, has his boutique winery, producing age worthy, balanced, complex, serious reds and whites. David has worked all over the world; his experience in St. Emilion, Bordeaux no doubt reflecting in his balanced, structured wines known for remarkable aging potential. David and his wife Rita (a talented artist who crafts the exquisite labels annually for their Chenin Blanc) also own a beautiful wine estate (in the middle of nowhere!) in the Malgas region. When they first saw the the land in 2000, they were blown away with the incredible soils.Today, Sijnn Wines are grown in Malgas along the Breede River - the only first growth appellation in the region.
