Oak Valley

Oak Valley Estate is an iconic fifth generation family farm, founded by Sir Antonie Viljoen in 1898, situated in the cool climate Elgin Valley. In 1908, Antonie built the first wine cellar in Elgin.

Towering above our vineyard is the Groenlandberg mountain with its highest peak of 1,181m. The altitude, south-easterly sea breezes, cloud cover and cold winters make Oak Valley one of the top performing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir producers in the country.

Our cool growing conditions allow for the gradual ripening of grapes, creating wines of delicacy, freshness, persistent flavours and balance.
