Perdeberg Wine Awards
These accolades celebrate more than exceptional wines; they recognise the dedication of our winemaking team, the character of our vineyards, and our unwavering pursuit of excellence. From our acclaimed Chenin Blancs to our bold, vineyard-driven expressions and innovative blends, each award reflects Perdeberg’s commitment to crafting wines of distinction. As we celebrate these achievements in our 85th year in the wine industry, we honour a legacy built on generations of expertise, resilience, and passion for winemaking. We look ahead with pride and confidence, ready to continue sharing the Perdeberg story, one glass at a time.
The Pebbles Story
The Pebbles Project was established in 2004 to offer support to children with special educational needs, particularly those whose lives are affected by alcohol in some way, in the Western Cape of South Africa.
Leopard's Leap - Our Passions
Alongside its primary dedication - making quality wines to appeal to modern, adventurous palates - Leopard's Leap Family Vineyards has three special passions: food, conservation and literature.
Background
Van Loveren is situated 160 kilometers from Cape Town, in the Breede River Valley between Robertson and Bonnievale. Banks of scarlet cannas along the roadside distinctly mark the property, which has been in the Retief family for over three generations.
Our Farm
Steeped in history and boasting some of the highest planted vineyards in the Cape, Chamonix is set amongst 300 hectares of pristine natural beauty on the Eastern slopes of the Franschhoek mountains.
Focus
As primary producer volume and control over product from vineyard to glass is important to us.
About La Motte
La Motte was acquired in 1970 by the late Dr. Anton Rupert, an internationally respected industrialist who established a global business empire, and was held in high regard as a committed conservationist. Dr. Rupert and his art-devoted wife Huberte also played an immense role in the preservation of art.
History
Scholtzenhof, one of the very oldest wine farms in the Cape, was originally granted as Zandberg in 1689.
Meet the Winemaker
WS Visagie grew up on a wine farm on the West Coast of South Africa and after completion of his studies in viticulture and oenology extended his studies to the USA, France and Germany.
Fairtrade
Fairtrade was introduced to ensure a better deal for growers and small-scale producers in developing countries. These people have often found that they are unable to obtain a fair price for their products because of their remoteness or size of operation.
