Papegaaiberg

Papegaaiberg’s focus on cool-climate varietals and its specific combination of altitude, climate, and soils make it a distinctive and sought-after ward within Stellenbosch. The higher altitude and proximity to False Bay contribute to a moderate maritime climate, cooler temperatures, and a longer growing season than most other wards in Stellenbosch. This climate, coupled granite-based soils, sandstone, and shale, creates an environment ideal for producing elegant white wines, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
