Orpheus & The Raven is a boutique, small-batch producer based at The Vinoneers in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Conceptualized in 2015 by winemaker Etienne Louw and graphic designer Brenden Schwartz, the brand combines handcrafted Cape wines with distinctive labels and a creative, art-inspired approach. Schwartz remains owner and Creative Director, while Louw is responsible for winemaking. Production is limited, including a 2015 release of Old Bush Vine Chenin Blanc in 983 bottles, with other wines made in limited quantities. The wines and their stories are intended to express a sense of place and purpose while embracing creativity beyond tradition.
