Bosman Family Vineyards, established in 1798 in Wellington, is a historic, Fairtrade-certified estate celebrated for award-winning wines like Chenin Blanc, Cinsaut, and Pinotage. With 26% worker ownership through the Adama Trust, Bosman blends sustainability and community upliftment with exceptional winemaking, offering tastings at their beautifully restored Wellington cellar and scenic Hermanus venue. Similarly rich in heritage, Groot Constantia, founded in 1685, stands as South Africa’s oldest wine estate, famed for its legendary “Constantia Wyn” once savored by European royalty and praised in literature. Today, it continues its legacy with award-winning wines such as the revived Grand Constance, while inviting visitors to explore its historic museum, cellar, and world-class tasting experiences.
