The story.
The only wine farm on the Cape Point peninsula has a striking vantage point above the surf breaks of Noordhoek, less than a mile from the ocean. History books tell us there’s been a vineyard here since 1752 but the current farm was re-planted in 1996 by Sybrand van der Spuy (see Cape Town Wine Co for more on his family’s story).
Their own ‘monopole’ was created in 1998 with the Cape Point Wine of Origin and the farm has since developed a reputation for the most remarkable Sauvignon Blanc in the Western Cape, including Isliedh, one of the truly iconic white wines of South Africa. Young winemaker Riandri Visser continues to build on this heritage and reputation with great skill.
