Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate in the Cape Winelands of South Africa is the home of stellar, cool-climate wines.
Cool-Climate Wines?
Benguela Cove boasts the longest stretch of ocean facing vineyards (2.6km), grown at the lowest altitude (about 3m above sea level).
With the estate’s unique location and optimum climate conditions it results in the ideal viticulture.
The south-easterly sea breeze is chilled by the Benguela current flowing up from Antarctica, to cool the grapes at night after the warm summer days, irrigated by above-average rainfall.
Framed by majestic mountains, panoramic views of the Bot River Lagoon and vistas of the Atlantic Ocean, this 220-hectare wine estate is admired for its unique location, gifted with a special terroir to produce wines of distinction.
This is the perfect terroir to produce grapes of superior quality and result in award-winning wines suitable for even the most complex palate.
Benguela Cove is a leading wine tourism destination that caters to all visitors in search of excellent food, wine and service, tailored to meet the needs of both the adventurer and those who seek a tranquil space to enjoy quality time with the whole family.
