Perdeberg Wines, basking in the shadows of the Paardeberg Mountain in Paarl, adopted its name from scores of Mountain Zebra that once roamed its foothills, mistaken for wild horses by the Dutch.
Established in 1941, our wines are rooted in a tradition of producing award winning wines grown in various micro climates in the area. The superior quality of Dry land vineyards and our innovative winemaking techniques combine to produce premium wines of world class quality.
At Perdeberg Cellar, we prefer to set trends rather than follow them and we never compromise the exceptional quality of our wines.
WE’VE ALWAYS DONE THINGS DIFFERENTLY – 1940’s
In the early 1940s, wine farmers in the Perdeberg region grew dissatisfied with the low prices they were getting for their premium quality grapes.
Then an astute farmer named Jan Rossouw suggested they begin producing their own wine and Perdeberg Cellar was born!
We pressed our first grapes manually in 1942 and while we have come a long way in terms of technology, we are still renowned for our hands-on approach!
