Our high altitude vineyards define our site - specific wines

Uva Mira's vineyards average between twelve and twenty-eight years in age and are situated between 420m to 620m above sea level. Our soils are a mixture of decomposed granite and shale.

Each vineyard has a different elevation, soil, meso - and - micro climate and exposure to the elements.

These factors make the fruit produced from each site - specific vineyard extraordinary and unique. It is this high altitude mountain vineyard diversity that gives our elegant and distinctive wines the ability to hold captivated, in every drop, their true sense of place.

Our meticulous viticulture incorporates the practices of correct canopy management, vertical shoot positioning and green harvesting. This attention to detail practices enhances the high quality of our crop along with regulate deficit irrigation to ensure concentrated flavours.

Our criterion for production is highly coloured, rich, concentrated fruit from naturally balanced low - yielding vineyards.

We have introduced "micro managing systems" in our vineyards enabling us to identify the slightest variances in our grapes from a specific site within a vineyard.

We consider our Vineyard Sites, Viticulture and Our team as our biggest asset.

We believe in a long term investment strategy in the above key elements as we strengthen our position as South Africa's leading boutique winery.
