Background

Proprietor and visionary behind the Guardian Peak range of wines, Jean Engelbrecht, head of the winemaking team, set out to create a range of quality wines to quench the searching palates of a generation fascinated by wines in a new-world style.

Guardian Peak is named after the towering peak on Stellenbosch Mountain. It was founded in 1998 by Jean Engelbrecht, who combined his knowledge of international wine markets with his experience at his family wine estate in Stellenbosch to create a range of everyday-drinking, fresh and approachable wines.

Two decades later, we pride ourselves on producing sustainable wines of consistent quality that are friendly and easy to enjoy. We hope you enjoy these wines as often as we do!

Grapes for Guardian Peak are sourced from respected growers with whom we have long-term contracts. These growers have been supplying our fruit from the beginning, allowing us to maintain the consistency that we pride ourselves on.
