Winning the VinPro Winetech Vineyard Selection Competition for three years is a proud testimony to the meticulous standards and our commitment to quality and innovation we take in our vineyards.

Years of know-how in cultivating vineyard material and a treasure chest of knowledge of our terroir are directly ploughed back into the vineyards. A long, healthy season produces perfectly ripe grapes with exquisite flavours.

Lying in the shadow of the Limiet Mountains on the slopes of the Groenberg, brings less direct radiation. Early summer south-easterly winds help the soil to dry easily for smaller berries. Late summer south-westerly winds brings cooler afternoons and evenings which makes for a gentler ripening period.

Only the finest 5% of our total production are selected for our own label, Bosman Family Vineyards.

Respect was the keyword when restoration and building took place and all existing building elements from the past, such as walls of the old kraal, open cement fermentation tanks, roof structures and rough walls were treasured and incorporated in the design in very ingenious ways.

Restoration on the cellar started in 2006 and retained the existing 18th century style in the overall building process. Although the cellar’s purpose changed over time with farming activities on Lelienfontein, the design of the new cellar steered the construction in a direction that provides the new building with its particular qualities.

Space was skilfully used and the historic barrel cellar will now again have purpose and will be used with modern, carefully hidden services. The old production cellar will now operates as the tasting room and open cement fermentation tanks will host the vinotheque.
