TESTALONGA | Wines from S. Africa
Testalonga's first natural wine, produced by Craig and Carla Hawkins, debuted in 2008 - a skin-macerated Chenin Blanc. Allegedly the first orange wine produced in South Africa, it immediately set them apart from other producers in the Swartland area.
One of the reasons for this is the orange wine failed to be classified, as orange wine was not a style permitted in South African wine appelations. So Testalonga went to court and changed that!
