Perched atop the Schapenberg, overlooking False Bay, Waterkloof Wines embodies the harmony between nature and craftsmanship. This biodynamic gem was founded by Paul Boutinot, whose quest for a vineyard with true terroir led him to this amphitheatre of vines in Stellenbosch. With sea breezes and diverse soils, Waterkloof embraces regenerative farming, preserving the region’s indigenous fynbos while creating wines of striking authenticity.

The team at Waterkloof, led by Paul, cellar master Werner Engelbrecht, and farm manager Christiaan Loots, champions minimal intervention and Old World sensibilities. Their vines, rooted in sandstone and granite-rich soils, are tended with care and harvested by hand. From their gravity-fed cellar to their innovative carbon-sequestration methods, every element reflects their commitment to sustainability and excellence.
