Where Passion Meets Terroir
With over 15 years in the wine world, including stints at renowned wineries, Suzanne Coetzee blends technical expertise with creative vision. Her philosophy? Let the grapes speak for themselves. She ferments in open tanks, does frequent punch downs, and ages her wines in older barrels, crafting wines from Stellenbosch that burst with freshness, fruit, and the true character of their land. Every bottle tells a story—of the vines, the soil, and Suzanne’s hands-on passion for winemaking.

Discover the Southern Flavors Within Our Wines
Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.
A homey little winery and vineyard in the picturesque hills. Delicious wines, nice variety, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Beautiful environment for wine tasting – laid back, rural setting, chairs outside to slowly enjoy your tasting, perfect experience.
A complimentary tasting is included in the mansion tour. We tried four different wines that we really enjoyed. After the tasting we decided to get a glass and sit outside. The staff recommended a bottle as it would be cheaper for three of us, so we got the Rose Brut and enjoyed it.
