Swartland Winery lies some 60km north-east of Cape Town near the town of Malmesbury. Old, low yielding bush vines are the secret of Swartland's success, thriving in the dry land vineyards, cooled by the sea breezes from the nearby Atlantic Ocean. Always at the forefront of quality wine production in the Cape, Swartland's wines offer exceptional value for money.
