The farm was named in 1704 when the settlers returned from an arduous journey to find their livestock gone and their home burnt down - hence the name Allesverloren meaning "all is lost". Present Owner, Danie Malan is the fifth generation on the farm, continuing the winemaking tradition of his forefathers who acquired the farm in 1872.

From the South East, the wind they call the Cape Doctor. From the Antarctic, winter rain. A soil that nurtures character. The burning African sun. Wind. Water. Earth. Fire. The ancient elements. An elegant blend of Shiraz 44%, Cinsault 36% and Grenache 20% presenting soft tannins and lots of fruit. Spicy with a complex aftertaste. Partly wood matured.
