About – Bon Courage Wines
Located in
the heart of the beautiful Robertson valley – a valley of wines and roses –
lies Bon Courage Estate, home to some of South Africa’s finest wines and
recognized both locally and internationally for their exceptional quality.
The stately
Cape Dutch homestead dates back to 1818 and the estate has enjoyed the
attention and dedication of three generations of the Bruwer family since 1927.
The Robertson
wine region is today renowned for wines of great depth and concentration, a
result of the ideal soil and climatic conditions that prevail in this region.
Three rivers runs through the estate and have, over the years, deposited a
variety of different soil types on the farm. Due to this diversification of
soil and microclimates, a wide range of grape varietals can thrive in the same
area. André Bruwer – the owner and viticulturist – has acknowledged the basic
maxim (truth) that good wine is mainly created in the soil and has, therefore,
put much effort into matching the correct cultivar to the ideal soil type.
Although
”tradition” plays a big role at Bon Courage Estate, careful but extensive
modernization has allowed André and his son Jacques to combine the best of
traditional methods with those of the modern age. This combination allows them
greater freedom and flexibility when creating the present and future Bon
Courage wines.
Today, André
and Jacques combine their experience, skills, patience and personal dedication
into producing a selection of the very finest wines.
