Atlantikas embodies the essence of a ‘Farmer’s Rosé’ style Pinotage, crafted with a nod to tradition and a focus on purity. This wine is 100% whole bunch fermented, imparting lightness and freshness, with no oak influence. Aged in stainless steel, it showcases a delightful combination of fruit-forward and spicy aromatics. Sourced from two dry-farmed bushvine vineyards near False Bay in southern Stellenbosch, the wine reflects the unique terroir of decomposed granite soils. With its open and textural palate, Atlantikas offers a captivating expression of its coastal origins.

Vigneron, Bernhard Bredell, hails from a long lineage of winemakers, rooted in the rich wine-farming heritage of the Lower Helderberg region in Southern Stellenbosch. With over 160 years of family legacy in wine cultivation, Bernhard proudly represents the seventh generation of winemakers in the Bredell family.

In 2016, Bernhard embarked on his personal journey and established Scions of Sinai, a venture inspired by the iconic granite outcrop known as Sinai Hill. Nestled within this historic terrain, Bernhard’s vision is dedicated to honoring the ancient dry-farmed bush vines meticulously tended by generations before him. Many of these vines, rooted in the soil by his late grandfather during the 1960s and 1970s, serve as the heart and soul of Scions of Sinai

At the core of our philosophy lies a commitment to crafting wines of unparalleled purity and authenticity, echoing the very essence of their terroir. Each bottle encapsulates the intrinsic honesty and character of its origin, speaking volumes of the land from which it emerges.

Situated in the Lower Helderberg of Southern Stellenbosch, our vineyards benefit from the region’s distinctive maritime influence and the characteristically lighter granite soils. These unique terroir elements contribute to the unparalleled expression found in each bottle of Scions of Sinai wine.
