The Groot Eiland Cellar lies at the foot of the majestic Du Toitskloof mountain range in the Western Cape. With cascading winter waterfalls providing a stunning canvass, the area is well known for its extraordinary scenery, excellent wines, friendly and hospitable people.
The unusual name Groot Eiland (big island) derives from the fact that our cellar and its farms are literally surrounded by the water of the great Breede and Molenaars rivers.
The surrounding snow-covered mountains of the Du Toitskloof and Bossieveld ranges make for spectacular scenery in winter. Long, extremely warm summer days and superb evenings offer great outdoor entertainment and adventures.
Groot Eiland is an expression of all that is good in the soil, vines and terroir. Wine that is expressive and to enjoy wherever you are. The brand offers the consumer an introduction across all varietals and has elegant fruit with ripe, sweet fruit that is produced to be consumed already straight after harvest yet can age well.
