Hidden away in Klaas Voogds in the heartland of the Breede River valley, you find a cellar with a difference. Tradition and personal attention to quality, combined with the natural beauty of surrounding mountains, create the perfect setting for a unique wine.

Relaxing on the wine-tasting deck high up on the hill against Kranskop, the distinctive range of rock-formation that lends this cellar its name, one becomes aware of the special ambiance of the personalized cellar and its unique product.

Come and enjoy the special qualities of our Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Chardonnay produced in a true traditional way and with that “personal touch”.

At Kranskop the old adage that “a wine is made in the vineyard”, is true. What grows in these rocky hills, is what goes into the wines. With its highest vineyard 320m above sea level, one can simply wonder at such quality, bouquet and taste. The 250° view from the cellar is truly magnificent.

Kranskop wines boast a very distinctive bouquet, colour and quality. This can mainly be attributed to three factors: the rocky, cool southern incline of the terrain, the unfiltered wines and most importantly, the fact that the wines as handmade.

Kranskop has established themselves as a small successful cellar and aims to retain that personal quality.

On this splendid site where 12 families live and work, 40 hectare of land is under wine grapes, and 50 000 bottles of quality wines are produced each year.
