Western Cape · Wine region
Refined cool-climate wines among orchards and mountain passes.

The region
Elgin is a high-lying, cool-climate valley encircled by mountains and known as much for apple and pear orchards as for vines. Cold winters, summer sea breezes and a slower ripening season have helped define its reputation for Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. The route suits visitors who enjoy a quieter country escape, with tasting rooms set among rolling farmland, orchard landscapes and the wider Kogelberg setting.
