• Slaley is situated on the western slopes of Simonsberg in the Stellenbosch area, which is characterised by a moderate climate. Rainfall is about 700mm/year and mostly falls in the winter months. Vineyards are planted at an altitude of 300 to 400m and we benefit from the cooling effects of the Southerly breezes coming in from False Bay.

About Slaley Cellar

Slaley Cellar, built in 1995, is situated on the western slopes of Simonsberg mountain near the town of Stellenbosch. We tend to make our wine with little New World influence, using long fermentation periods at high temperatures and ageing our wines in classic French barrels. Our Shiraz is the exception. The wines produced will always be a reflection of the climatic conditions of their particular vintage. Our main focus is on the production of quality red wines with a limited amount of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and olive oil.

The judges, all French, are tasked with recognising and rewarding wines of elegance, balance and finesse which have the ability to age well. Trophies as well as gold and silver medals awarded.” ~ Top Wine SA
