Situated on the Stellenbosch Wine Route, Zevenwacht
has viticultural roots which penetrate deep into the historic past
of South Africa. While literally meaning Seven Expectations, the
name Zevenwacht exemplifies the abundant delights which await visitors
to the Farm.
The wines of Zevenwacht are distinguished by their
classic style and finely crafted elegance. Winemaker Jacques Viljoen
honours century-old wine-making traditions, yet is boldly innovative,
welcoming the contribution that modern technology makes to the vinification
of premier wines.
Covering 200 hectares of the 450 hectare property,
the vineyards are ideally situated for the growing of quality grapes.
Zevenwacht is characterized by good quality, varied soils and the
vineyards have been selectively planted with red and white noble
varietals.
