La Vigne Wine Estate

MAKING MUSICAL WINES

It is known that classical music changes the molecules of water in a harmonic way. As wine is more than 80% water, we do believe that playing classical music in our cellar changes our wines in a positive way. Our first Musical Wine, - the Edvard Grieg Edition 2006 is now ready to be tasted…

A new producer who has released some impressive wines from the get-go WINE Magazine, February 2007

Being a small Boutique Wine Estate, we have to make sure that we make good wines. Which probably explains why our first vintage got such good ratings (4 and 3.5 stars) at WINE Magazines New Releases tastings, and that our first Single Vineyard Shiraz got a gold medal at the SA Young Wine Show 2007.

Accredited as a Proudly South African Wine Estate

Only 25% of the South African private cellars are registered as Wine Estates. Which means that we grow our own grapes, we have our own wine cellar and the whole winemaking process - including bottling and labeling - takes place on our farm. Accredited as an official Proudly South African-member, La Vigne is found to satisfy important criteria including practicing fair labour standards and a good environmental standard.

Wine courses for Scandinavian visitors

In addition to wine tasting and cellar tour, you may attend our 3 hour Introduction to South African Wine-course. We also offer a Wine Blending Workshop where you create your own red blend, bottle, cork and capsule it with your own label! Click on the link to our website below for more information.
