When I visited this wonderful site overlooking the Franschhoek valley, I was immediately attracted by the gentle sunlight, the fresh breezes and the stunning panorama of nature. When I asked myself what kind of architecture would make the most of such a site, I imagined a grove-like structure that would surround a single tree that has a particularly strong presence on the site. It is an architecture that is integrated with the local nature, employing local materials and construction methods as much as possible. I am proud to say that this architecture is appropriate for the high-quality 4G wines, which are made by enjoying the best of the local nature.
