SylvanVale is the estate comprising the vineyards surrounding the historic Devon Valley Hotel. Built in 1947, the Hotel is a much-loved Stellenbosch landmark, and generations of Stellenbosch residents have fond memories of enjoying a drink or a meal while sitting on the hotel patio overlooking the vineyards. It is these vineyards which now produce the SylvanVale wines.
Grapes have been grown on the property since the 1960's . Today these are some of the flagship vineyards in the Devon Valley, and the south east facing slopes with their rich red soils now produce superb Pinotage, Cabernet and Chenin Blanc cultivars. Viticulturist Lorna Hughes, who has been instrumental in the renaissance of the property, implements a programme of total quality management, with rigorous bunch selection throughout the year, resulting in intensely flavoured and ultra ripe fruit - the basis of SylvanVale's big, bold wines.
