A World Away
Mellasat Vineyards was created by the Richardson family in 1996 from the original farm Dekkersvlei which was established in 1693.

About Our Wine
Our small but quality range of wines are an expression of harmony of the local natural beauty and are aimed primarily at the discerning domestic and export markets.

Our Team
A successful vineyard depends on the people running it and we feel that local knowledge is best

The Vineyards
From 1997 Stephen Richardson started replacing some of the farm’s existing Chenin Blanc vines with the noble cultivars Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and Chardonnay, as well as South Africa’s own Pinotage grape variety.

Wine Club
We value our regular customers and like to reward their loyalty which is why we created the Mellasat wine club. Joining a wine club ensures you receive limited release wines on an ongoing basis before they are sold out.
