Zandvliet Wine Estate near Ashton in the Cape Winelands straddles the Cogmans River, with the great Langeberg Mountains throwing a giant arm around it from the north and disappearing to the south-east. With over 140 years of the De Wet family on the Zandvliet estate, it has become far more than just a vineyard. Only 130 kilometres due south is the southernmost point of Africa, Cape Agulhas, dynamo of the breezes that cool our hills in summer.
Say Zandvliet and it’ll echo ‘Shiraz’. Being one of the very first wineries in the country to bottle this noble cultivar, this wine estate on the outskirts of the Robertson Valley Wine Route, combines time-honoured tradition with modern-day expertise to produce pure luxury in a glass. The story of Zandvliet is all about Shiraz and extends back to the first plantings during the 1870’s. Some of the magic is found in the soil, some in the cellar and much of it in the hands of a passionate team. All of the Zandvliet wines are of the kind we ourselves drink and admire. You’ll find artisan handcrafted and cellar matured wines, so feel free to enjoy them now or savour at a later occasion.
