About Sijnn Wines

Sijnn Wines is a pioneering estate located in Malgas at the Southern tip of Africa, 15km from the sea. Founded by David and Rita Trafford, it is the only first growth appellation in the region, producing distinctive wines from poor shale soils that encourage deep root systems and low yields. The winery focuses on terroir-driven wines including red and white blends, along with varietal expressions of Mediterranean and Portuguese grape varieties.
