Accolades
Over the years, our small but incredibly talented team have been privileged to receive several notable awards for their outstanding work in the vineyard and cellar.
Jancis Robinson,
British Wine Critic
“The overall impression is of a South African red that is unusually lively, complex, confident and creditable…. I have a nasty feeling this wine is likely to become more expensive as it establishes the reputation of this exciting new region.”
- Robinson on Sijnn
Tim Atkin,
Wine Writer & Judge
“If you were looking for evidence of how recently Syrah has risen to prominence in South Africa, you could do worse than visit Sijnn in Malgas and Porseleinberg in the Swartland – remarkable vineyards at opposite ends of the winelands. These very different sites are producing two of the finest examples of the grape in the country and yet their first vintages were in 2007 and 2010, respectively”.
– Decanter Sep 2015
“I think it’s important for anyone who appreciates the efforts that go into making wine to try and track down a few bottles of Sijnn. There are few projects that epitomize such a soulful, pioneering approach to winemaking."
– Wine Spectator
