Sitting in a region blessed by superlative vineyards, exquisite Flamingo's and rare orchids, Darling Cellars is located close to the hamlet of Darling on the cool West Coast of South Africa. As a private company and with nearly 1.700ha under vine, winemaker Abe Beukes is now producing wines rivaling the best in the Cape.

Our Flamingo Bay range of wines echo the elegance of a wonderous bird in a style which is clean, fresh, fruity and vibrant.
