Eben Sadie is considered one of the pioneers in South African viticulture. Because of his insight it can be said that the Swartland region came to be seen in a completely different light. It was Eben who found the older vineyards here and made his famous Columella and Palladius.

Like all wines of the Sadie Family, this Treinspoor is a very scarce, great wine with an impressive aging potential. Like the big brother, this Treinspoor is made from the Tinta Barocca. In the glass, the wine has a bright ruby red color with a scent that opens slowly. It has a captivating bouquet with raspberries, cranberry leaf, tobacco and moist, wet clay-like aromas and lots of spiciness like cloves, nutmeg and some pepper. Followed by a good spicy taste with a fine acidity and refined tannins. The wine has firm tannins that can be compared to Barolo's and Barberesco's from Piemonte. This is a great South African wine.
