He developed a strong passion for the Swartland and the varietals that thrived in this warmer climate, eventually deciding to start his own label in 2008 with a focus on these grapes. Since then he's been making waves in the South African wine industry, producing extraordinary minimal intervention wines, vintage after vintage, and this one could be his best yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-tab-count: 1;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e: South Africa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swartland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV\u003c\/strong\u003e %: 12\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContainer Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bottle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinsault\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49390447624425,"sku":"PRMNT-RMA-12%-750ML-PER","price":91.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2435\/3999\/files\/RallMethodeAncestrale2023750ml.jpg?v=1763630326","url":"https:\/\/thewineprovidore.com.au\/products\/rall-methode-ancestrale-12-750ml-copy","provider":"The Wine Providore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
