Where Good Company Meets Great Wine. Weekends are made for gathering, a table set, a fire crackling and a bottle worth opening.
Named for Nicolas de Lanoy, the Huguenot settler who helped shape Boschendal in 1688, Nicolas carries that founding spirit into every pour - three centuries on, still shaped by this valley.
A six-varietal blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon and matured fourteen months in French oak, it unfolds slowly - cassis, dark cherry and fine spice layered with intent. Shiraz lends depth, while Merlot and Malbec bring vibrancy and a long, considered finish.
A wine that holds its own, from the first sip to the last guest lingering.

A change of scenery for our Black Angus.
This morning’s walk took them up the mountain and into fresh grazing ground. On a working farm, these moves matter for the herd, for the land and for the shifts in season.

Thursday in The Werf Food Garden
The garden knows before we do. New blooms, new harvests, a different quality of light. We invite you to take a slow walk through The Werf Food Garden and let the season show you what's changed.

A farm is held together by many hands.
As the storm moved through the valley, Boschendal remains open thanks to our Estate Team and the many hands behind the farm, who met it with care, calm and resilience.
We’re thinking of everyone across the Western Cape affected, stay warm and safe.
To The Women Who Shaped Us. This Mother's Day, raise a glass of Boschendal Cap Classique to the women who have guided us from the beginning.
From the bright lift of Brut Rosé to the quiet complexity of Grande Cuvée and Jean Le Long, each bottle in our Cap Classique range is hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed and given months - sometimes years - on the lees to become what it is.
That kind of patience has a way of producing something extraordinary, as every mother knows.
A fitting tribute to those who give so much, in ways both seen and unseen.

A Gift With Three Centuries Behind It. Some bottles are bought and forgotten. Others are opened slowly, shared in good company and remembered long after the final pour.
This Mother's Day, give her something shaped by time - whether it's the luminous bubbles of our Mountain Rose, the stone-fruit warmth of our 1685 Chardonnay, or the rare, considered expression of Auré - crafted as a tribute to 340 years of winemaking at Boschendal.
Wines grown in this valley, rooted in tradition and best enjoyed with the people who matter most.
