Biodiversity
Biodiversity and conservation also high on the agenda...
The History of Nederburg Wine Estate
Our history dates back to 1791, when German immigrant Philippus Wolvaart acquired 49 hectares of land in the Paarl Valley. He named his property Nederburgh, in honour of the VOC commissioner, Sebastian Cornelis Nederburgh. Later, the ‘h’ was dropped from the spelling of the farm’s name and it became Nederburg as it is known today.
The Cellar Club
The Cellar Club has been designed to welcome fellow wine lovers into the Ken Forrester "Family". Our aim is to provide our members with hand-crafted quality wines, which is the product of our soil, our vines, our climate & our people.
