Du Toitskloof Winery: Nestled in Scenic Beauty

Located along a stunning mountain pass near Rawsonville in the Breede River Valley, Du Toitskloof Winery is a celebrated name in South African winemaking. Known for its quality wines, the winery has earned both national and international acclaim, making it a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts.

A Legacy of Fairtrade Practices

Founded in 1962 by six local wine farmers, Du Toitskloof has evolved into a multi-million Rand enterprise. Initially focused on wholesale production, the winery shifted its attention to bottled wines, showcasing innovative techniques in both the cellar and vineyards. The estate cultivates noble grape varieties that thrive in the region's unique climate. Du Toitskloof offers a diverse selection of wines under five brands: Du Toitskloof, Quest, Land’s End, Zonin Prosecco, and Tunnel. Notable favorites include the Du Toitskloof Sauvignon Blanc, Quest Heroes Journey 2016, Land’s End Syrah, Zonin Prosecco Superiore DOCG, and Tunnel Fragrant Rosé.

In 2005, Du Toitskloof became one of the first Fairtrade accredited wine producers in South Africa.

Commitment to Sustainability

Fairtrade is a globally recognized initiative that promotes the welfare of rural communities, emphasizing sustainable social, economic, and environmental development. At Du Toitskloof, farmworkers are integral to the winemaking process, benefiting from training and skills development programs. Over 2,500 individuals have directly gained from these initiatives, which include a children's daycare center, a mobile clinic, educational bursaries, and adult literacy programs.

The wine is great. The Nebiolo was very good. The facility is nice but not fancy.

Located just off the N1. Located at the beginning and end of a 14km and 22km mountain bike trail. The restaurant serves a good selection of food. The wine is of good quality. Try the Tunnel red. You could sit inside or outside. There is a big lawn with playing area for children.The cellar is very popular over the weekends so going early or booking in advance is essencial.

Very nice pit stop! Lekker pies and snacks for sale. Not my new favorite wine, but different cloaks for different Oakes. Beautiful gardens, stunning play area for the kids.

Loved our experience at Dutoitskloof. The drive to the farm is beautiful and arriving at DTK is a welcome sight. We were warmly greeted by staff, despite it being a quiet Friday afternoon and she generously assisted us with a tasting. The wines are all excellent, my favorite is the Chenin Blanc despite the fact that I am not a white wine lover. Well done team DTK, it's one of my favorite wine experiences to date!

Great service. Beautiful artwork. Wines are of extremely great quality. Value for money. Awesome restaurant and scenery. A must stop on your way through Rawsonville. Lots of changes made to make this venue modern and stunning. Not a cyclist myself, but see showers for cyclists and places to wash your bike. So there you go!
