    Cradled amid the hills of the Hemel-en-Aarde (Heaven and Earth) valley,
    Bouchard Finlayson is widely acclaimed as one of South Africa’s leading boutique wine cellars.

    With a terroir defined by both ancient soils and a cool maritime climate, the vineyards of Bouchard Finlayson are famous for producing award-winning
    Pinot Noir, elegant Chardonnay and terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc, while inspired blends showcase the depth of skill and innovation in our winemaking team.

    The Bouchard Finlayson cellar is conveniently located a scenic 90 minutes’ drive from Cape Town, close to the world-famous whale-watching centre of Hermanus.
