About Black Pearl

Producer Story

Black Pearl wines are made in the vineyard and the focus is on producing limited quantities of high quality grapes. The name “Black Pearl” was inspired by the fact that the vineyard is situated on the slopes of Paarl Mountain, and Paarl Rock resembles a black pearl after it has rained. Black pearls also have rarity value. The name of our blend “Oro” comes from the God Oro, King of the Firmament, who gave the black pearl as a gift to the ocean. Black Pearl Winery is one of the those madcap outfits where brilliant wine is made for the love of it.
