AYAMA WINES - SLENT FARMS

AYAMA is a winery located in the Paarl countryside close to the slopes of the Paardeberg Mountain, owned group of Italian investors united by friendship and love for South Africa. "Ayama", a Xhosa word means "someone to lean on". Ayama dreams was to transfer a part of their Italian spirit to South Africa. From this comes the idea of bringing the Vermentino grape into the South African ampelography, the unusual choice to celebrate this union between Italy and the rainbow nation. We focus in unusual varieties like Grenache Blanc, Merlot, Viognier, Petite Sirah, Carignan, and Nero D’Avola.
