Rust en Vrede

First family- owned wine farm to specialize in the exclusive production of quality red wine only, Rust en Vrede is now South Africa's Premium red wine Estate. Our full-bodied, oak matured wines are a manifestation of the supremacy of the Stellenbosch region when it comes to the making of truly great red wines. All our vines are of virus free clone material and grapes are hand selected and picked at optimum ripeness. We have been producing quality wines since 1979 and house the first underground cellar in the country. We were the only 10th wine estate to be established in Stellenbosch and are proud of our history in as much as we are proud to be writing history right now!
