The Black Lion is the heirloom of years of winemaking in De Toren’s continuous quest for perfection. It culminates the immense skill, dedication and profound passion of our winemaking team.

Producer information | De Toren acquired their first vineyards in 1991 and redefined the Bordeaux concept in South Africa ever since, establishing an iconic following. With the De Toren Fusion V, first the blends were decided upon and thereafter the vines were planted to match the blend. At De Toren the pursuit for perfection is evident in their grape selection and harvesting. They aim to ‘create an environment where vines produce flawless fruit and then guard these grapes as they are gently steered from vineyard, to cellar to bottle’ – De Toren. |
