The Kasteelberg range of wines celebrates the discovery of the Riebeek Valley and the Kasteelberg mountains in 1661. Kasteelberg stands sentinel over the fertile valley below. From the slopes of the mountains, hand-selected grapes are expertly crafted with care to produce rare and expressive wines.
Harvested from an exceptional vineyard in the heart of the Swartland, the Kasteelberg Pinotage is characterized as a well-structured wine, offering layers of flavors and aromas.
