It's that time of the year again


...and what a great time of the year it is! Namaqua Wines have been hard at work harvesting. We have already received approximately 6 000 ton grapes at Spruitdrift Cellar, where we produce our red wines; and approximately 22 000 ton grapes at Vredendal Cellar, where we produce our white wines.


We even broke some harvest-time records, for instance a stellar amount of 2460 ton grapes that were received on a single day! The trucks had to line up, forming a queue that stretched as far as the railway station. With the amount of effort that we're all putting into this year's harvest, it looks as if every day is going to be the same! Well done to everybody involved.
