About

Nestled near Elim in Walker Bay's South Cape wine district, The Giant Periwinkle is a boutique winery born from winemaker Pierre Rabie's reverence for both the craft of winemaking and the maritime landscape that inspired its name—a whimsical nod to the alikreukel sea snail he discovered while diving off Cape Agulhas. Each wine reflects the distinctive terroir of this coastal region, with offerings like Kelp Forest Syrah and Blanc Fumé that embody the character of their beloved surroundings.
