Aaldering
In 2004, Marianne and Fons Aaldering founded the winery with 24 hectares in the Devon Valley. At that time, the entire vineyard was replanted. In 2012, the new winery, built according to the latest guidelines, was put into operation. Despite the rather new and small winery, Aaldering has since developed into one of the most renowned and best producers.
This is because the winery focuses on supplying high-quality wines to connoisseurs all over the world. That is why the owners continue to invest in their idea of producing the very best wines of the highest quality. Especially taking into account the special climate and soil conditions in Devon Valley near Stellenbosch.
The oenologist P.J. Geyer is responsible for the quality. His flair for the balance of finesse and elegance, coupled with power and fullness, is reflected in all his wines. The grapes are selected exclusively by hand. The red wines mature for 24 months in French barriques.
The soil is quite loamy and can therefore store water well. The vines therefore find sufficient moisture even during dry periods. Due to the cool breeze from False Bay in the afternoon, the grapes retain their moisture and elegance. This is essential for high quality. The very good quality of the tannins is also a characteristic of the Aaldering wines.
