The history of Swartland Winery dates back to 1948 when the Swartland Co-operative was founded by 15 member farmers in the Swartland region which got its name from Jan van Riebeeck’s description of the land on seeing the indigenous vegetation ‘renosterbos’, which appears black in colour.

The arable land of the Swartland region is ideally suited for the growth of grapes in the bush vine style and the many microclimates enable the cultivation of a wide selection of wines.
