The Zevenwacht vineyards cover 200 hectares of the 500 hectare property, and are ideally situated for the growing of quality grapes. Extending up the slopes of the Ribbokrant, the south and south-west facing vineyards are protected from the intense heat of summer afternoons by the Bottelary Hills and cooled by the sea breezes 'blowing off' nearby Table Bay and False Bay. Characterized by good quality, varied soils, the vineyards have been selectively planted with red and white noble varietals.
What better place to spend some time in tranquil settings, comfortable accommodation and good food and wine.
