On Friday, 18 January 2019, a new era has begun in the Riebeek Cellars’ proud winemaking tradition with their new company name, Riebeek Valley Wine Co. They hosted a successful and informative launch at their cellar to inaugurate their new name to the public and trade.

 

Riebeek Cellars will remember the 2017 season as one of the earliest in years, starting on the 10th of January, even earlier than 2016. Although the 2017 season may be seen as cooler than 2016, water was still a problem and the drought had its effect, especially on the early varietals.

It takes experience to spot the makings of a classic. So, who better to review the award-winning Riebeek Cellars range than famous folk born in the same year as the cellar itself – 1941.

 

It’s the time of the year when everyone on the wine farms are busy picking grapes.

 

Bulk wine exports have become the backbone of South Africa’s international wine trade. But to increase profitability and ensure financial sustainability, Riebeek Cellars is instead investing in a rebranding exercise aimed at increasing bottled wine sales.
