Where

Nestled in the picturesque mountains of the Hemel-en-Aarde valley lies our beautiful and bright La Vierge cellar and tasting room.

Step through the entrance of our winery, and you are spoiled with breathtaking views of the rolling hills and mountains of the Hemel-en-Aarde at your feet. 

Further along the meandering route in the higher Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, lies our vineyards from which we craft our wines.

Who

Come with us on a journey... We’ll tell you a story, as old as mankind, about a beautiful garden. It starts with a man as handsome as the sun, who loved a woman as alluring as the moon. There was great innocence to their life in the garden - they roamed the fields, laughed with the animals and ate their full from the bountiful trees. When, one day, along came a slithering serpent, the original salesman, who convinced them to exchange paradise for a shiny apple. Legend tells of a place poised between heaven and earth, where cool hills stretch their legs and dip their feet in the Atlantic Ocean. Here pristine vines grow and offer up their fruit for the creation of wines that reflect the beauty of Eden, the mystique of a paradise forever lost, and a little bit of the temptation of the serpent… Wines of desire.

La Vierge is privately owned and has been producing wines of outstanding quality for more than 10 years. Acting as custodians of this little piece of paradise on the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, we’ve produced wines that you won’t taste anywhere else.
