Brandvlei Cellar, founded in 1955 was originally situated next to the Brandvlei Dam. When the dam was enlarged in 1974 the Cellar was relocated to its present position.
This attractive Wine Cellar can be found on the R43 road between Worcester and Villiersdorp in the beautiful Breede River Valley. The name Brandvlei, originally Brandende Vlei, has described the area around the hot water springs.
The vineyards are situated in an area where millions of years ago, glacial activity, especially from the Karoo, left rich geological deposits, which created the unique and fertile soil types of the area. It also left interesting rocky outcrops, known as the Dwyka formations, which makes the surrounding hills stunningly beautiful!
