KWV was founded in 1918, the same year South Africa’s first democratically elected president, Nelson Mandela, was born. In the space of just over a century, the country and its wine industry have seen many changes – and KWV, as the company who united wine farmers during the industry’s fledgling and struggle years, is privileged to feature prominently in the annals of South African history.
Grapes are sourced from the most sought-after viticultural regions of South Africa and are expertly handled and transported to KWV’s cellar facilities in Paarl in the Cape Winelands. Our facilities cover approximately 32 hectare, and at the heart is the world-famous Cathedral Cellar, built in 1930.
KWV continues to build on its reputation as pioneer and innovator, and with a mantra that puts the consumer first, undoubtedly ready for the next century. With a solid foundation in the South African wine industry, and with global reach, KWV invites you to be part of its future.
Newton wines stocks and distributed the award winning Method Cap Classique sparkling wines from Laborie along with a selection of the unique and wonderful Mentors range of wines.

Laborie MCC Blanc de Blanc 2014

Laborie Cap Classique 2011, Blanc de Blanc

This MCC was matured on lees, in bottle, for approximately 36 months.

This complex and indulgent MCC shows aromas of green apple and citrus. Hints of lime are accompanied by aromas of toasted bread and hazelnut. The palate is creamy, round and textured with an explosive acidity and lasting, elegant finish.

Grapes: Chardonnay    Alcohol: 12.44

Laborie MCC Brut Rosé

This pale blush MCC shows prominent aromas of red berries, flambéed plum and pomegranate with undertones of oyster shell on the nose. The palate is seductively fresh and persistent with a lingering aftertaste of honey cake and sliced grapefruit. The mousse is ne and soft, leaving the taste buds with a tantalized sensation.

Grapes: Pinot noir, Chardonnay    Alcohol: 12.53
Laborie Brut Rose Method Cap Classique

The Mentors Grenache Blanc 2018

Mentors Wines KWV - Grenache Blanc

This is a stunning example of Grenache Blanc. The aromas of fresh baked coissant with tropical fruit lead to a palate slightly waxy but with pineapple and peach, there is great minerality to carry the wine. This will keep fresh for at least three years and mature beautifully for up to ten years.

Grapes: 100% Grenache Blanc    Alcohol: 13.35%

Mentors Petit Verdot 2017

This intense, ruby red wine is concentrated and leads on the nose with sweet spice followed by dark cherries, black olives and violets. The palate is rich and juicy with prominent fruit sweetness. The tannin structure is well integrated and delivers an intense, lasting finish.

Grapes: 100% Petit Verdot    Alcohol: 14.23%
