Welcome to Neethlingshof
The history of beautiful Neethlingshof Estate spans more than 300 years. In 1692, Willem Barend Lubbe, a German settler, began farming the site he had been granted by Governor of the Cape Simon van der Stel. He named the farm De Wolwedans, “The Dance of Wolves”, having mistaken for wolves the packs of jackals roaming the countryside. The farm then became property of the famous Marais family, who built the wine cellar and the manor house in 1802 and 1814 respectively and it was their son-in-law, Marthinus Neethling, who renamed the farm “Neethlingshof. Today the wines and the estate itself are a must-visit. Neethlingshof’s Weisser Riesling Noble Late Harvest has been awarded the South African National Champion Noble Late Harvest trophy for eight consecutive years - a record in the wine industry! The winery is also the recipient of many SA National Wine Show Veritas double gold and gold medals and was judged Best South African Wine Producer on the International Wine & Spirit Competition in London in 2002.
