Our Vineyards
Boasting some of the highest planted vines in the Cape Winelands, Chamonix has around 50 hectares under vineyard.
Farm History
Blaauwklippen was founded in 1682 by Gerrit Jansz Visser, but it wasn’t until 1688 that the first vineyards were planted in the fertile soil of the estate. Jump forward to 1899, when famed businessman and politician Cecil John Rhodes became the owner of Blaauwklippen, but only for one day!
Stellenzicht Wines is pursuing excellence through sustainability and regenerative farming
We nurture the vast, micro-climate soil pockets of Stellenzicht to steward and sustain what nature provides each year. Our wines truly are expressions of our terroir.
Background
Kleine Zalze is an award-winning winery situated in the heart of the Cape Winelands, just two miles from Stellenbosch. Winemaking has taken place on our estate on a small scale since 1695 but it was in 1996, when Kobus Basson and his family purchased the property, that the modern Kleine Zalze was born.
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.
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.
History
Scholtzenhof, one of the very oldest wine farms in the Cape, was originally granted as Zandberg in 1689.
Background
The Pentz family, Nick Pentz and sons Peter and Josh are committed to producing exceptional wines that showcase the estate's unique terroir and history, with three generations working together.
Cellar and Vineyards
The farm is situated in a narrow valley in the Kleinriver Mountains, southernmost mountain range in Africa.
Our Philosophy
Our viticulturist and winemaker are passionately involved in maintaining the unique terroir of our vineyards nestled on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain.
