Lutzville Cape Diamond Vineyards

Lutzville Cape Diamond Vineyards are nestled on the banks of the Olifants (Elephant’s) River, where it flows into the diamond rich ocean of the South African West Coast. A few miles downstream, the Atlantic Ocean’s bracing Benguela current brings cool breezes to create perfect conditions for our brilliant, multi-faceted fine wines.

The area has been blessed with ideal soils for producing fine wines: much sought-after gravelly Karoo type soils cover the slopes, and sandy, alluvial soils lie closer to the river. These combine with the meandering nooks and crannies of the twisting Olifants River, to form micro-climates which we can exploit for the special needs of individual grape varietals.

 

 

Scenes of Lutzville winery

Lutzville Cape Diamond Vineyards is one of South Africa’s most successful wineries. Situated on the North-West coast of South Africa, in rich, alluvial soils alongside the famous Diamond Coast, the area surrounding our vineyards has long been recognised as one of South Africa’s most ideal wine-growing areas.

The mild climate, dominated by misty mornings, sunny days and a prevailing South-Westerly sea breeze, is perfect for growing top quality grapes. Everything seems to conspire naturally to promote the production of wines that are both unique in character and outstanding in quality. As a result, the wines of Lutzville Cape Diamond Vineyards are increasingly prized.

With 2,100 hectares under vine, we are one of the few wineries with such a wide range of varietals in significant volumes. This affords us the consistency of style and quality available to major wineries, with the capability (normally only associated with boutique wineries) of selecting only the best when creating our superior wines.

Wines are crafted from premium blocks of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Chenin Blanc, Colombard, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinotage, Shiraz or Ruby Cabernet.
