Le Bonheur

Nestled between the magnificent Simonsberg Mountains and Klapmuts Hill, Le Bonheur is the gateway to South Africa’s most renowned wine producing region – Stellenbosch. With a history dating back to the 1700’s – Le Bonheur Wine Estate epitomises the rich heritage of Stellenbosch. Historically “Le Bonheur” was a resting place for travellers and traders – offering lush green surroundings and natural spring waters. The original owners of this scenic farm, the French Huguenot De Villiers family, fittingly named it “Le Bonheur”, meaning “happiness”. Today the Estate retains its sense of place, timeless setting and rich heritage.

Le Bonheur Prima
A pioneering, classic Stellenbosch blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Medium to full-bodied, exhibiting dense, red fruit and a smooth texture. Harmonious, polished and elegant. William Wilkinson, describes this wine as a balanced Stellenbosch symphony. The Merlot provides a finesse and feminine elegance, supported by the bold structure and power of Cabernet Sauvignon. Lastly, Cabernet Franc lifts the blend with fragrant notes of lavender and dried herbs.
