High Season Farm
Where
Drive up the Hemel-en-Aarde road. Turn left towards the De Bos dam and around a bend, a low-slung building appears on the horizon, perched on a sweeping landscape and anchored under a large tree.
This is the Frame House. A wooden structure housing the wine tasting venue belonging to Bosman Family Vineyards, on their farm in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, Hermanus.
Who
The Bosman family have a history of growing wine in the Bovlei of Wellington, dating back to 1810.
In 2000 they acquired a farm in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley which would supplement their offering with cool climate grapes. Here the vineyards are planted between fields of indigenous ‘fynbos’ and in close proximity to the sea to create terroir rivalling the world's best; and resulting in wines with minerality, elegance, vivacity and finesse.
