Idun
The winery bears a mythological name: Idun comes from the Norse goddess of eternal life, fertility and apples. Idun brings the hope of new beginnings and the chance to create something that can be appreciated today and for generations to come.
Idun wines are among the world-famous “cool climate” wines from the Elgin region. These wines are delicate and elegant and age wonderfully due to their high acidity. This is partly due to the location at an altitude of 350 m and the slow maturation in a cool Mediterranean climate.
During a family trip through South Africa, the Rousset family discovered the magical Elgin Valley on the south-west coast. Fascinated by the region, they decided to pursue their passion for wine and create their own brand. The Rousset family was impressed by the quality of the wines and the potential of the region – and inspired by local winemaker Paul Wallace.
