Burgherspost Wine Estate | Darling, Western Cape

The area of Darling is surely another gem in the Western Cape crown. This remarkable region is all about fruit farms, wheat fields, butter making, vineyards and flowers and it is just 75km from Cape Town. This area is traditionally known for its exquisite wild flowers, but for city weary Cape Townians, it is the perfect country weekend getaway destination.

There is so much to see and do in the town of Darling and beyond and the Burgherspost Wine Estate, beautifully situated below the Dassenberg Granite Hill, attracts many visitors who want to experience true South African farm life. Burgherspost was also one of the first wine estates to be given Champion status under the Biodiversity and Wine Initiative. Their goal is to prevent the loss of threatened natural habitat, and to contribute to sustainable wine production.
