Wine & Olive Oil
SOUTH COAST OF SOUTH AFRICA.
The Finest South African Wine & Olive Oil
Baleia’s vineyards and olive groves are located on exclusive terroir a stone’s throw from St Sebastian Bay, known as the
whale nursery of South Africa. Inspired by the Mediterranean climate and their love of food and superbly crafted wine,
the Joubert family has been producing the Baleia range of premium wines and olive oils since 2009.
Baleia’s range of premium food-friendly wines is a testament to the exceptional cultivars present on our farm. You’ll taste a bit of the Mediterranean in every glass.
Baleia’s Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Olive Oil is well balanced and has distinctive aromas of green tomatoes and artichokes, with a hint of lemon freshness.
OUR WINES
The uniqueness of the Baleia property lies in the soil, which consists largely of pure, solid limestone with a very high mineral content. This creates a very unique and particular mouthfeel to the wines, reminiscent of chalky minerality and maritime salinity. This soil is also home to the very rare Canca fynbos, which is endemic to the South Coast and one of very few fynbos species to flourish in the alkaline environment of limestone outcrops
