VONDELING
SOUTH AFRICA
VONDEL ING
Vondeling, meaning ‘foundling’, lies on the slopes of the unspoilt
and undiscovered Paardeberg mountain, approximately 45 minutes’
drive from Cape Town. It was granted to Olof Bergh in 1704,
and a three-centuries-old winemaking tradition began.
Today, an environmentally sensitive approach to farming and minimal
intervention during the winemaking process ensure wine with a distinct
fingerprint of origin. Vondeling’s flagship wines, Vondeling Babiana and
Vondeling Monsonia, are named after rare species of fynbos that are
endemic to the Paardeberg mountain, the home of Vondeling Wines.
