Our philosophy is to create delicious single-block wines - this is the smallest production unit for vineyards and may not exceed six hectares per cultivar. Since 1723, Jan Harmsgat Farm, or JHG, is situated on the most southern tip of the Robertson Wine valley along the foothills of the Langerberg Mountains.
