| Description: | Eben Sadie is considered one of the great preservationists and visionaries in the new generation of South African winemakers. The wine writer Neal Martin recently called Sadie an "outspoken, peripatetic, terroir-obsessed winemaker who has been instrumental in putting Swartland on the map.

These are cerebral wines built to age." 2019 Columella is the 20th bottling of what can only be described as a discovery.
