The Agulhas area’s harmony with nature is evident in its rich biodiversity, flourishing flora, and abundant birdlife. The protected wetlands and the awe-inspiring sight of great white sharks roaming the nearby ocean further exemplify the raw beauty and diversity of this landscape. Among the windswept plains, resilience and serenity coexist, revealing a deep connection between the people and their natural surroundings.

Pioneering winemakers gently navigate the winemaking process, allowing the terroir to shine through in every bottle. The cool ocean winds sweep in, cooling down the vineyards and imparting a maritime influence, lead to lower yields and gradual ripening of the grapes, resulting in wines that carry a distinctive common theme of elegance, concentrated flavour, and some serious depth.

As custodians of both nature and agriculture, the people of Agulhas and the surrounding areas take pride in their role as guardians of this precious land. Embrace the spirit of adventure, join the quest for exceptional wines and create your own unforgettable experiences as rolling dirt roads lead you ever closer to the coast during your discovery of this windswept region where two oceans meet. From visiting the welcoming wine estates of the area, some of which offer on-site accommodation, such as Strandveld and Black Oystercatcher, to summer days spent on Struisbaai beach and no shortage of self-catering cottages or camping and caravan stays – it’s all on offer here. Unearth the hidden treasures of this remote corner of the world and savour the essence of its raw and honest winemaking tradition.

For wine enthusiasts seeking a journey of discovery and adventure, the Agulhas Wine Triangle presents a unique proposition. With its claim to fame as the southernmost vineyards on the continent, raw landscapes, and terroir-driven wines, this region beckons to those who dare to explore the untamed beauty of Africa’s wine heritage.
