The vineyards in Stellenbosch

Jordan Winery is considered a leader in Stellenbosch, arguably South Africa's most beautiful wine region. It boasts an impressive 164 hectares of vineyards in this stunning region. Because several vineyards are relatively close to the Indian and Atlantic coasts, they enjoy the necessary cooling, a particularly beneficial feature for the white grape varieties. Gary, a geologist by training, has carefully examined the terroir to determine which grapes thrive in which location. These past investments are now paying off. Today, the most phenomenal wines leave the impressive cellars of Jordan Winery.
