At the heart of Nederburg’s winemaking journey are the people who are part of our rich and colourful history, from generations of award-winning and innovative winemakers to Ilse Graue, who lived in the manor house until the late 1950s and was a gracious host to Nederburg’s many visitors.

We enjoyed all the wineries that we visited. George did a great job. He drove safely and made sure our day went smoothly. We had a memorable day.
Thank you so much
At the first winery, Jean Claude arranged a tasting spot for us, then we were left by ourselves. As we did not have a full understanding of what was covered, we had to ask our server. For the remaining tastings, he was present or available. As we didn't know anything about the area wineries, we let the tour operator chose them. At the pre-chosen wineries, the wines were nice and the scenery was fantastic. This tour was a great way to try wineries in the 3 regions. Our guide/driver was not wine savvy.
Thank you so much, hope to see you again
