Where great wines start ...
The Swartland region offers the perfect conditions for the exceptional wines we produce.

Our vineyards lie against the slopes and foothills of Kasteelberg mountain, 60m to 300m above sea level.

The diverse soils include Oakleaf and Dundee alluvial soils from the sediment of die Berg River and Glenrosa soils from underlying shale along the Kasteelberg mountain.

Winter rainfall and sufficient cold units ensure that the vines receive proper rest before bud-break in September. Our intensely hot and dry summers with cooling westerly winds create ideal conditions for producing fine white and red wines.

A low bearing region with limited irrigation, our key vineyards are still farmed as either dryland farms, or with some supplementary irrigation to help the crop to optimum ripeness.

David Wickham Congratulations - 🎵 is the greatest tool.

Below are the words delivered by Deon Snyman illustrating the careful choice of a visionary befitting the prestigious Paul Harris Fellow Award.

DAVID WICKHAM: THE VISIONARY BEHIND THE STEELBAND PROJECT

David Wickham, the founder of the Steelband Project established in 1997, is a name synonymous with dedication, energy, and an unwavering passion for music. His journey from an academic background to becoming a prominent figure in the musical landscape of the Western Cape is both inspiring and remarkable.

Trained as a teacher, David Wickham's educational journey saw him studying English and Film at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). His academic pursuits didn’t stop there; he went on to lecture in English at the University of Cape Town (UCT). Despite his roots in education, it was his profound love for music that ultimately shaped his path and his legacy.

Wickham’s Steelband Project was born out of a fascination with the unique sound and simplicity of the steelpan instrument. This Caribbean instrument, known for its distinctive timbre and rhythmic versatility, captured his imagination. What made the steelpan particularly appealing to Wickham was its accessibility; it is an instrument that allows entire groups of people to learn and play music together in a single session, even if they have no prior musical experience. This inclusive approach to music-making was a cornerstone of his vision.

Under his guidance, steelbands flourished in various communities, including Langa, Gugulethu, Manenberg, Camps Bay, Constantia, Riebeek-Kasteel, Riverlands and now the Impendulo band in New Rest Valley (Esterhof). These bands brought not just music, but a sense of community and a break from the often harsh realities of life. Wickham's influence extended even to farm bands, with groups like Morester, Ebenezer, and Remhoogte emerging under his mentorship.

Wickham's impact is felt far and wide. His approach to teaching music is rooted in his belief that it is the right thing to do. This ethical drive fuels his relentless work ethic; he is known for his boundless energy and commitment, often working through public holidays to ensure the success of his projects. His ability to connect with people and inspire them is unparalleled, making him a beloved figure in the communities he serves.

One of the most profound aspects of Wickham's work is the opportunities he creates for individuals to escape their often depressing environments and experience the broader world. Through music, he offers them a chance to build self-confidence, perform in front of diverse audiences, and see possibilities beyond their immediate circumstances. His dedication and consistency are legendary, with his stamina and indomitable spirit setting a powerful example for all who know him.

David Wickham's Steelband Project is more than just a musical initiative; it is a transformative force in the lives of many. His love for music, combined with his teaching background and unyielding work ethic, has created a lasting legacy. Through his efforts, countless individuals have found joy, confidence, and a sense of belonging in the harmonious world of steelband

Eden

Welcome to our Eden in Riebeek Kasteel village, which we feel is as close to Paradise as you can get.

Eden currently offers four en-suite studios and one villa(sleeps four). The rooms are built around a unique garden, located in the beautiful and popular Riebeek Kasteel 80 km north of Cape Town. With only a 12 minute walk or 2 minutes’ drive, you will be right in the centre of Riebeek Kasteel, buzzing with trendy restaurants, unique wine stores, shops, galleries and microbreweries. The area provides unmatched opportunities for activities around the vineyards or the mighty Kasteelberg, where every sunset becomes your own drama in nature's colours.

With 500 trees and shrubs that have been carefully planted and nurtured over the past 20 years, each tree and shrub has its own history and location, and all the trees together create a harmony and overall feeling that you rarely come across.

Imagine a morning run or walk surrounded by vineyards, followed up with your Yoga/Pilates/Qigong session in the garden under the trees and then enjoying your coffee at the pond. Relax with your favorite book in the gazebo, have a beautiful picnic under the oak tree or enjoy Riebeek Kasteel town. Laze with your partner or friends in shade of the trees, sipping a glass of wine. Enjoy your Sun Downer in the gardens or next to the sparkling pool, before enjoying dinner at one of the local restaurants in the village. During the walk back, make sure to look at all the stars in the sky…
