At Cape Jaffa Wines we believe in making highly drinkable wines for every occasion. This is why we make our wines under three distinct ranges. Our La Lune biodynamic range is all about terrior. Made with a hands-off approach to allow the wines to tell the story of the where they came. The ‘Made Differently’ range,
where we have fun merging unconventional varietal pairings and get creative with unique fermentation vessels and skin contact. Our CJ range is all about everyday drinkablity. Our hallmark styles where grape growing, winemaking and blending all come together.
BIODYNAMIC
We grow fruit in our biodynamic vineyard, partner with growers who share our commitment to tread lightly and do all we can to let nature take its course.
Our natural process serves as our inspiration to explore the exciting potential of biodynamic winemaking - trialling new ways of growing, blending and vinifying without being constrained by convention. In every bottle from our two Biodynamic ranges, La Lune and En Soleil, exists a story of the place from which it came.
Our La Lune range are grown at our coastal vineyards in the region of Mount Benson. Very cold oceans fuelled by the Bonney Upwelling surround our site to both the north and south. The mild summers, terra rossa soils and limestone sub soils bring unique and distinctive characters to these beautiful wines.
Our En Soleil range is grown by the Koch family in Wrattonbully. Their vineyards lie inland from us alongside stranded coastal dunes formed before the land rose and the sea retreated. The moving coastline contributed to the forming of caves which exist beneath the rich red earth creating warmer climate wines of richness and intensity.

MADE DIFFERENTLY
We exist in a non-traditional wine region living on the edge. Where the Limestone Coast meets the Southern Ocean we are not constrained by rules or convention.
This range features wines where the influence of the winemaker and a vivid imagination come to the fore. With these wines we have embraced unprecedented blending ideas, merged tradition with innovation and used unusual vessels.
Our special egg-shaped tanks feature heavily in this range and if you ever have the pleasure of visiting our cellar door you can see them in use in our below ground barrel hall. With these wines we have thrown out the wine-making textbook and dared to make wines that are unique, intriguing and above all delicious.

CORE
This range comprises of straight varietals made in classic Cape Jaffa style. Fruit is selected and blended from our favourite sites in the Limestone Coast discovered after years of searching.
They feature wines that represent our hallmark style where grape growing, winemaking and blending come together. We are not necessarily about the marriage of traditional and safe varietal and regional partnerships. Instead we search for perfectly balanced grapes from undiscovered secret spots farmed by growers who share our philosophies to tread lightly. The results lead to wines that are consistently good from year to year and wines that boast drinkability and style.
