Joostenberg Estate Tasting

Joostenberg is a small, family-owned and run wine farm, on the border of Paarl and Stellenbosch. First established by a Swedish settler in the late 1600s, the farm was bought in 1879 by the Myburgh family, who have been here ever since. In 1999, after several decades when the estate sold its grapes to a local cooperative, 5th generation brothers Tyrrel and Philip Myburgh reprised Joostenberg’s long winemaking tradition. Their aim was to create wines with individuality and a sense of place, made as naturally as possible, with respect for the environment. To this end, the estate was converted to organic methods (certified 2012) and remains one of the few fully certified organic estates in South Africa. 

Join us for an evening of great wines and tales from Tyrrel's time growing up on the farm and the journey of reviving wine making traditions.
