Producer
Groot Phesantekraal is a historic, family-run estate founded in 1698 in the Durbanville area of South Africa. Now managed by the fourth and fifth generations of the Brink family, the farm spans diverse activities, including vineyards, small grain, and livestock, making it one of the region's most innovative and sustainable agricultural enterprises. The winery's commitment to excellence is evident in hands-on viticulture - such as fermenting older-vine juice in amphora and barrels - combined with contemporary winemaking techniques. Recent accolades for owner André Brink, including Western Cape Farmer of the Year, and for young winemaker Richard Schroeder, highlight the estate’s forward-thinking spirit and expertise.
