Raats
Raats produces wines in Stellenbosch, the Coastal Region of South Africa's Western Cape. The winery's portfolio centers on two distinctive varieties: Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. The MR de Compostella Mvemve, a Cabernet Franc, demonstrates the variety's capacity for structure and complexity in this terroir. Chenin Blanc appears across multiple expressions—notably the Cape Winemakers Guild The Fountain Terroir Specific and the Bush Vine Limited Release—each capturing the grape's mineral precision and textural range. Wines from Raats have been assessed by Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Falstaff, reflecting their standing within serious wine criticism.
