Vegan, Vegetarian.

Good wine with good credentials. Winemaker -Jeremy Borg

A winery we are very interested in due to the positive impact on customers at our tastings and for the winery’s commitment to supporting the endangered African wild dogs- the rarest large mammal in South Africa. With only around 400 adult dogs (Painted Wolfs) remaining, the support from the sales of these wines contribute to the vital conservation of these stunning animals.  We are arranging for founder winemaker Jeremy to visit us in Spring 2025 for a talk and wine tasting with our customers. We are also planning to visit the winery in 2026.

Jeremy and Emma Borg founded Painted Wolf to create wines from a small number of growers in some of South Africa’s prime sites, including Paarl, Swartland and Stellenbosch – from low-yielding areas which are mostly unirrigated and farmed organically or with minimal organic outputs – and to support conservation of the endangered African wild dog.

A bright zippy wine with typical Sauvignon Blanc aromas of gooseberry, fresh cut grass and figs. This Sauvignon Blanc has a round textured mounth feel, great balance and fresh supple acidity. The Den Wines are comfort wines, and this wine delivers just that.
