Producer Information
Stark-Condé is a well-regarded winery established in 1998 by Cuban-American winemaker José Stark and based in the heart of the renowned Stellenbosch wine region, just east of Cape Town, South Africa. Today, the winery produces around 6000 cases of wine a year, and is known for producing some of the best red wines in South Africa. After working as a graphic designer, Stark moved to South Africa in 1997 with his wife Marie and settled on her family's estate in the Jonkershoek Valley in Stellenbosch. Stark experimented with a few barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon on the property, which was then known as Oude Nektar. It was met with high acclaim from critics and the company was established soon after. Oude Nektar is still produced by the company to this day. Stark-Condé has about 40 hectares (100 acres) in the Jonkershoek Valley, which is considered to be a prime region for red varieties. The vineyards are planted on steep slopes at 150 to 600 meters (500-2000ft) above sea level, providing excellent drainage. The site often produces concentrated examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Three Pines is Stark-Condé's flagship lineup, and is named for the three pine trees on the top of the hill that overlook the winery. There are also Stellenbosch-designated wines; a Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and more recently a white field blend of Roussanne, Chenin Blanc, Viognier, and Verdelho and well as varietally labled wines, such as a Chenin Blanc, are also produced.
