Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon is celebrated for their handcrafted wines of outstanding quality, embodying the essence of dedication and meticulousness. The winery is situated in the picturesque village of Klapmuts, approximately 15km from Paarl in the Western Cape of South Africa.


South Africa's naturally warmer climate is tempered by refreshing breezes from the south on hot summer days. This combination creates an excellent environment for cultivating outstanding Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. These varietals thrive in the region's climatic conditions, resulting in wines that showcase the rich flavours and complexities of these varietals.


Additionally, Mount Vernon has gained acclaim for its exceptional Chardonnay wines, which have received numerous prestigious awards. Their Chardonnays exemplify elegance, balance, and finesse.


From vineyard management to grape selection, fermentation, and ageing, no compromise is made in the pursuit of excellence. Each bottle of Mount Vernon wine is a testament to the winery's unwavering commitment to crafting wines of the highest quality.
