Durbanville Hills Wine
The unique location of Durbanville
Hills’ cellar a mere 20 minutes
from Cape Town’s city centre,
offers not only a spectacular view
of Table Mountain and Table Bay,
but also an extraordinary terroir
that stabilises temperatures and
eliminates extremes of heat and
cold. Although the Durbanville
area is renowned for its Sauvignon
Blanc that excels under the cool
conditions where it is grown
mostly on the cool south facing
slopes, the range of red wines also
benefit from the warmer valley
outskirts and opposing northern
slopes.
Durbanville Hills would not have
existed without the enthusiasm of
the winery’s producers and their
faith in the high potential of their
high-quality grapes. In the late
1990s seven grape farmers and
Distell agreed to build a cellar as
part of a joint venture to make
their own wine. Since the first
vintage in 1999, there are nine
member farms, all located near
the cellar. The member farms are
Klein Roosboom (the site of the
fresh-water spring that prompted
the first farmers to settle in the
area), Ongegund, Hillcrest,
Maastricht, Morgenster,
Bloemendal and Hooggelegen.
Another two producers from the
farms Welbeloond and De Grendel
recently joined the cellar. Such is
the heritage of the region that the
youngest of these farms, Klein
Roosboom, was established in
1714 and the oldest, a mere three
years after those established in
the Constantia area in 1685. |
