Overgaauw
Overgaauw sits in Stellenbosch, the heart of South Africa's Coastal Region, where maritime influence and elevation shape wines of structure and depth. The winery's portfolio centers on Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends—grapes that thrive in this terroir's cool nights and well-drained soils. The Cape Winemakers Guild DC Classic stands as the flagship, a wine that has drawn recognition from Wine Spectator. Alongside it, the Cabernet Sauvignon and Private Bin No 35 Cabernet Sauvignon–Merlot demonstrate the winery's command of these varieties, each expressing the precision and balance that define serious Stellenbosch reds. These are wines built on varietal authenticity and regional character rather than extraction or oak.
