Wine guide

Du Toitskloof: The Heart of the Bredekloof

The Winery & Terroir

The Du Toitskloof winery is located in the heart of the Bredekloof wine region, part of the wider Breede River Valley in South Africa. Nestled between the majestic Du Toitskloof mountains and the Breede River, the vineyards benefit from a unique microclimate. Cool nights and warm, sunny days ensure a slow and even ripening of the grapes. This terroir is the foundation for the estate's characteristic wines: accessible, expressive, and full of fruit.

The soils in the region are diverse, ranging from sandy loam to stony slate, allowing the winemakers to find the ideal location for each grape variety and create wines with depth and complexity.

For poultry or pasta with a cream sauce, the Chardonnay is an excellent choice, while the Rosé is perfect with light summer cuisine. The Sauvignon Blanc Brut is great as an aperitif, as well as with oysters or light starters.
