Terracura began when Michael Roets bought a concrete egg at the Swartland Revolution in 2010, and the non-vintage Smiley wines have been its calling card ever since. Originally inspired by the hyper-oxidised wines of the Jura. Chris Groenewald took over winemaking in 2022. Fruit comes from Durbanville, the Breedekloof and the Swartland, largely whole-bunch fermented on native yeasts in open-top vessels, with nothing added but a whisper of sulphur at bottling. Each release blends vintages: fine and floral, with cherry, strawberry and a hint of black olive, silky and rounded, and endlessly drinkable at 12.5%.
