Wellington,
tucked away near the scenic banks of River Kromme (right at the edge
of the Groenberg Mountains) is less than an hour’s drive from the
thriving Cape Town. Standing to the east of this beautiful tourist
location are the majestic peaks of Hawequa Mountains—which provide
a beautiful backdrop for a valley that sprawls across like a giant
wine-yard. Yes, more than 90 percent of the country’s vines (and
the best of the lot) are nurtured in Wellington’s vine-cutting
nurseries—before being transported elsewhere for replanting.

Wellington,
earlier referred to as Limiet Vallei (or Frontier Valley),
Wagenmakersvallei or Val du Charron, was the point of commencement of
wagons in the days gone by –before they rolled out on their long
and daunting journey. Here, you may like to indulge in its spirit of
viticulture, which dates back to the times of French Huguenots, in
the late 1600s.
