Black Elephant Vintners was born out of synchronicity, fortuitous friendships and a love for wine. Black Elephant Vintners is an independent wine producer that strives to demystify wines to all enthusiasts and offer wine experiences without the pomp and ceremony commonly associated with the industry. To this end, we introduce fun into serious winemaking whilst capturing the taste and terroir of th

It is our firm intent to ensure that our wines and brands are exciting, premium and distinctive at all times. Our wines originate from, and are produced under, the “Wine of Origin Franschhoek” banner. The exception to this is our incomparable Back Roads label, whose philosophy is to produce wines from carefully selected vineyards, blocks and grapes that display unique and exceptional potential – be it in or beyond the borders of Franschhoek. Our wines represent our sincerest endeavours to bring the Franschhoek experience to all wine lovers for the sole purpose of enjoyment and as an expression of our appreciation for our good life.

Old vines. 39 years in the ground.
Skye breaks down why that matters
in a glass.
That's not just age. That's patience.

We don't make wine for people who swirl.
Somewhere along the line, someone decided wine should be serious. Hushed. Sniffed and scored like an exam you could fail. Nobody asked us so we opened a bottle instead of reading the memo.
No scores. No rules. No little nods of approval. Wine made in the dirt, not a boardroom, by people with stained hands and zero interest in your tasting notes. Loud music, better company, and a bottle that was never meant for one. That's the whole religion.
We're the idiots who'd rather wreck the rulebook than win an award.
Drink different. Live loudly. Pour generously. Pull up a chair we'll open something good.
