The Foundry

The brainchild of celebrated Meerlust winemaker Chris Williams, the Foundry sources grapes from specially-identified blocks for optimum ripeness and character.

No particular recipe is followed and each parcel is treated per its individual intrinsic character with the objective to make enjoyable, drinkable wines.
