Helderberg

Today, nestling comfortably in the shadow of the Helderberg mountain, is Helderberg Winery, one of South Africa's oldest wine cellars, founded in 1906. The mountain symbolizes the uniqueness found in the region, making it one of the finest wine producing areas in the world. Helderberg is well known for its Port as it was the South African champion and Reserve champion in 1991 and 1992 at the National Young Wine Show. In 1993 the Port received a gold Veritas Award and in 1994 the Chenin Blanc (off-dry) won a double gold. The winemaking team once again showed their went by winning gold Veritas Award in 1997 for the 1995 Cape Ruby Port. It is the variety in the terroir, both maritime and mountainous, that provides Helderberg with the unique fruit which form the foundation of our quality wines.
