About
Land’s End Wines, the first of its kind for the area, was established in 1996 by a group of like-minded friends and maverick wine-lovers who long saw the opportunity for Sauvignon grown along this raw, light-filled Cape Agulhas coast. The wines coming out of the area made waves through the industry for their distinct varietal character, depth of flavour and unmistakable saltiness. Today, Land’s End is produced by Du Toitskloof Wines and consists of two tiers; both are bottlings of Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah, one is produced from grapes only sourced in the Elim and Agulhas area, while the other incorporates grapes from across the Cape South Coast, including Agulhas. The cool maritime climate coupled with the fierce winds imbues a unique sense of place in the wines.

If you were ever wondering...
...what provides the inspiration for these write ups, today's your lucky day. You're about to find out.
99% of the time it's the products. Unsurprising. But also so very corporate and predictable. And we hate that. So once in a while we like to draw our creativity from elsewhere, such as:
If E is the most common letter in the English alphabet, why is it so particular? Surely it should've been shaped like an I, just a single straight line? It seems excessive to have to draw the extra three horizontal lines, when really it could've been avoided.
If you know the answer, as in really truly know, please write to us at EisshapedlikeEbecause@onedayonly.co.za
Otherwise enjoy thinking about that too for the next three or so years.
