Robertson

A hot region, about 70 miles east of Stellenbosch, this fertile area, accessed, through a mountain range, is in the Breede River Valley, the river providing the much needed lifeblood for the vines, in this drier area. However cool, south east breezes temper the weather.

Whilst Robertson produces some top quality, intense reds, it is, perhaps, surprisingly famous , given the climate for its white wines, including Sauvignon blanc and Chardonnay from Graham Beck, De Wetshof and Springfield.
