in the vineyard : Sixpence was the nickname given to shepherd Daniel Smiles who looked after the flocks of sheep that roamed the farm in the 1950's and 1960's, when current owner Stanley Louw was a boy.

The Chenin Blanc vineyards were planted on what had been grazing land, and they have been referred to as Sixpence's Vineyards ever since.
