The Homestead situated in the picturesque area between the towns of Somerset West and Stellenbosch had originally operated as a Post Office, which used to serve the local missionary community of Raithby, it was a logical step to associate the wine with its postal origin. The winery was thus named Post House. The winemaking objective is to interfere as little as possible in the creation of the wine making. We use traditional wine making methods including natural yeast fermentation, basket pressing and no fining or filtering.
Natural yeasts, no filtration, minimal intervention, minimal fining
