"A reflection of proud tradition in every bottle"

Situated in the heart of the Cape Winelands. Its winemaking tradition dates back to the late 17th century when the French Huguenot settlers came to the Cape to develop the fledging wine industry started in 1655 by the first commandor fo the new colony, Jan van Riebeeck. Among the new comers was Jacques de Villiers, a winemaker from Niort in France. In 1874 his great-grandson Paul bought a portion of the original Landskroon farm which has been granted to a Free Burger by Governor Simon van der Stel in 1692.The expansion continued until today Landskroon comprises more than 600 hectares - with vineyards covering nearly 300 hectares. The Estate is managed as a private family operation, owned by brothers Paul and Hugo de Villiers. Paul de Villiers Jr, current cellarmaster, is a member of the ninth generation carrying on this proud tradition. Eighty percent of the vineyards at Landskroon consist of the red cultivars Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Shiraz Pinot Noir and Pinotage. Port varieties Tinta Barocca, Rinta Roriz, Souzao and Touriga Nacional constitutes approximately 10% of the production while the remainder of the farm is devoted to white wine cultivars, Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Morio Muscat.
