With a proud history dating back to 1791, the Nederburg winery, set against the imposing Drakenstein Mountains near Paarl, is dynamic, forward-thinking and progressive. A famous South African heritage wine brand, it’s a leading example of the country’s wine excellence and innovation.
Nederburg creates hand-crafted micro-cuvées for specialist wine lovers and beautifully balanced and accessible wines for everyday enjoyment, with equal commitment. They offer an exciting taste discovery. When the farm claims a reputation of wine excellence, it’s no empty boast. Its recipe? Impeccable quality credentials, an ongoing award-winning track record, and a talented winemaking team that strongly focuses on continually exploring ways to better their best efforts.
The winemaking team is headed up by seasoned winemaker, Samuel Viljoen, who has been part of the winery team since 2007, first as an assistant and from 2014 as fully-fletched red-winemaker. Pieter Badenhorst is Nederburg’s white-winemaker, assisted by Jamie Williams, while Zinaschke Steyn makes the reds. Viticulture is undertaken by Isabel Teubes.
While Nederburg has established an unassailable reputation for excellence across its range of red and white varietal and blended wines, there are two styles in particular that are virtually synonymous with the winery; Cabernet Sauvignon and noble late harvest.
