Nelson Wine Estate
Location
Paarl
Overview
Nelson Wine Estate is a family wine farm in every sense of the word where most of the members of the Nelson family are involved in the running of the business in one way or another.
Alan Nelson went to school in Johannesburg and then studied law at Stellenbosch University where he met Marguerite, the love of his life. Together they turned a dream into reality when they purchased the farm in 1987. It was then pretty run down but with the help of loyal staff and their children, every vine on the 130 hectare estate has been replaced, and a state of the art winery, three superb function venues and a lovely country lodge have been built on the estate. Three years ago Alan handed over the farming and winemaking business to his children Daniel and Lisha making it possible for him to pursue his passion for the law and especially mediation. Alan’s spare time is taken up carriage driving with his Friesian horses and he is currently developing Olympic standard facilities for hosting carriage driving competitions on the estate.
