About Anura Vineyards
Anura Vineyards is owned and run by Tymen, Jenny and Lance Bouma.
Positioned on the foothills of the Simonsberg Mountains, Anura boasts a wide variety of soils, slopes and microclimates. This allows us to grow a wide selection of cultivars, some uncommon in South Africa, and match each cultivar with its ideal soil and microclimate. With each passing harvest we learn more about our soils and vineyards, and refine our vineyard and cellar practices to create the finest wines for our unique terroir.
Our passion is red wine, and with plantings of Mourvédre, Petit Verdot, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Malbec, among more classic, locally grown varietals, we aim to produce handcrafted wines for individuals who are looking for something unique and distinctive.
In the vineyards, Tymen strives to utilise practices that best suit a particular varietal, including specific canopy management, control of the yield, trellising and irrigation control. Our grapes are harvested by hand at optimum ripeness. The grapes are machine-sorted to remove leaves, broken berries and stalks, and then hand-sorted to ensure that only the best bunches are selected for crushing.
Careful attention is paid to each lot of grapes, based on the cultivar and the particular block concerned. Block 10, for example, consistently produces our award-winning Merlot Reserve, which has won numerous double gold awards and trophies. Based on these factors, our cellar team decides on crushing methods, yeast type, fermentation method and temperature, type of wood for fermentation and ageing, as well as filtration methods required and a host of other factors, to ensure that the individual character of each lot of grapes is carried through to the bottle.
At Anura, we aim to produce wines that combine the New World’s robust fruit with the elegance and complexity of Old World winemaking styles.
