It’s that transformative moment. A singular experience of shifting perspective. DAMASCENE seeks out unique vineyards that will re-shape your understanding of wine. DAMASCENE is a partnership between celebrated Cape winemaker Jean Smit and David Curl, former owner of Château Gaby in Canon-Fronsac, Bordeaux, now of Moya Meaker in Elgin. The debut release in 2019 saw them shooting out the lights, garnering both local and international acclaim, being hailed as a ‘pitch-perfect set of wines’ and as ‘one of the most exciting South African releases in a decade’ by respected critics.
