Springfontein Wine Estate produces terroir specific wine for international and local markets.
Springfontein is named after a natural spring that feeds into a vlei, which in turn is used to irrigate the 25 hectares of established vineyards. The soil is 100% limestone and ecological conditions are similar to the renowned wine growing regions of Champagne and a certain area of Burgundy.
The flagship white and red wines are typical South African varieties, namely the Jil’s Dune Chenin Blanc and Jonathan’s Ridge Pinotage. The Terroir Selection range is most popular with the estate’s specialist retailers, while the more affordable Sopiensklip range has been included in the Best Value Wine Guides.
