  Our 1771 Heritage , made from the oldest fruit bearing vine in the Southern Hemisphere, said to have been planted circa 1771, received 4 stars in the new edition of Platter's wine guide. It is available at the winery, in very limited quantities.... Unfortunately the landlord of Heritage Square decided unilaterally that Signal Hill was not any longer in charge of the historic vine. We regret this situation, but it gives wine collectors a reason to purchase the last very rare bottles of this historic wine, made by Signal Hill. *************** LAST MINUTE: SIGNAL HILL has been selected to showcase one of our famous cuvée during the 40th Nederburg Auction. Our Cabernet Sauvignon 2000 Antica, will be sold at the Auction. |
