Timepiece is Jordan's innovative new range of wines celebrating the family's heritage. These are bottlings from the oldest vineyards on the wine estate, planted by founder Ted Jordan and certified as “Heritage Vineyards” by the Old Vine Project.

The four cardinal points depicted on the packaging are located at different elevations on Jordan's hillsides. The Timepiece logo is handwritten by Ted Jordan, a sign of his eternal influence on Jordan Wine Estate's identity-a true ancestral clock.

In the vineyard

The vineyards face south are located between 220mt and 365mt above sea level and enjoy very favorable climatic conditions as they are reached by Atlantic breezes from False Bay.
Soil: decomposed granite.
Age of vines: 39 years.

In the cellar

67% of the must is fermented in 228L French oak barrels of 2nd and 3rd use and 33% in 400L Italian clay amphorae for 6 months.
The amphora has the natural ability to keep the marc in constant suspension during fermentation. The must is then left to mature “sur-lie” for 6 months, with occasional punching down.
Four barrels undergo natural fermentation. No sulphide is added during the vinification, but only at the time of bottling.
