90 points for our MAN Family Wines Skaapveld Shiraz and Free-run Steen Chenin Blanc and at the International Wine and Spirit Competition 2026 👏

The Skaapveld Shiraz delivers “Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and gentle rose lead to a smooth palate of ripe red fruits, smoky oak, and a touch of mocha. The finish is elegant, with lingering complexity.”

The Free-run Steen Chenin Blanc shines with “Bright lemon zest and cut grass lead into white grapefruit and a lovely purity of fruit mid-palate, underscored by wild honey notes. The wine shows great typicity with a golden quality, finishing crisp and refreshing.”

11 Best Cabernet Sauvignon Bottles Under $15 🍷
“Quality, authenticity, great taste, and value”

Man Family Wines produces its sustainable ‘Ou Kalant’ cabernet sauvignon on South Africa’s Cape Coast. The wine blends 85% cabernet sauvignon, with alicante bouschet, petit verdot, cinsault, and shiraz. While the blend is unique, bringing in grapes with origins from Portugal, Bordeaux, and the Rhone Valley, each variety serves a purpose adding color, weight, and texture.

The wine ages for 12 months, of which a portion is in French oak, lending a hint of cedar and spice. Attractive notes of blackcurrant, ripe cherries, and berries mingle with cedar, chocolate, and an herbaceous note, with a slight mineral edge throughout. With a medium body, the 13.5% alcohol wine’s tannins are well-integrated, harmonizing with the juiciness and freshness of the food-friendly wine.

25 Years • Real People, Real Wine

In 2001, our very first vintage was made in a tractor shed — just 600 cases of Pinotage.

We started close to home, sourcing the best grapes we could find, from unirrigated bush-vines in our own backyard, the Agter-Paarl.

Twenty-five years later, the MAN family has grown, but not much has changed. We still make honest, everyday wines.

And wherever they end up…
🥂 at a table with friends,
🍷 a local wine bar,
🍇 or as part of a simple meal
…they find real people. Just like the ones who made them.

Mid-November is a crucial time in the growing season. Flowers on the vines turn into small fruit, which in turn, becomes bunches of grapes to be harvested early in the new year.

The MAN Merlot is a small yet mighty part of our line-up. It shows notes of red & black fruits, light spice and some mocha aromas, balanced by elegant, juicy tannins, making it an extremely drinkable wine to enjoy this Merlot Day.

We caught up with our assistant winemaker, Tom. In the cellar, the team is focused on carefully checking barrels and monitoring progress. Out in the vineyards, young vines are being prepared for the season ahead.
With the 2026 vintage drawing closer, there’s a mix of excitement and anticipation in the air.

Rich in colour and layered in flavour, it speaks of heritage and place.
International Pinotage Day is observed on 11 October, we raise a glass to this varietal that continues to define South African wine.

From the wild grasses and fynbos that border our vines to the animals that roam alongside them, every MAN Wines label tells a story of South African heritage. Our wines aren’t just made in SA – they’re shaped by it.
