{"title":"Allesverlorn Wine Estate","description":"The history of the winery dates back to the 17th century, between 1696 and 1704, when the Governor of the Cape granted it to a widow named Cloete. This courageous woman was one of the first settlers to venture into the inhospitable region of the Swartland. The early settlers were simple people who had to make do with modest farming tools and basic necessities. To buy tools and attend church, the widow made the long and arduous wagon journey to Stellenbosch alone in 1704. Upon her return, she found her house burned to the ground and the farm destroyed. Hence the sad name of the estate, \u0026quot;All Lost.\u0026quot; Considering its name, it is indeed an irony of fate that this jewel of the Swartland wine region has met with such a fortunate end. By 1806, the owners of Alleverloren had already harvested the estate\u0026#39;s first grapes, and since the estate was passed into the hands of the Malan family 140 years ago, Alleverloren has grown steadily. The property has expanded to 227 hectares, and its wines have always enjoyed great international acclaim.","products":[{"product_id":"allesverloren-fine-old-vintage","title":"Allesverloren Fine Old Vintage","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAllesverloren Fine Old Vintage\u003c\/strong\u003e is no ordinary red wine – it\u0026#39;s a piece of South African wine history in a glass.
