Boplaas<br />

Nestled in the picturesque Klein Karoo<br />

hamlet of Calitzdorp, Boplaas is owned<br />

by the Nel family who have tended vines<br />

and endeavoured to craft exceptional<br />

wines since the 1800s, with their very first<br />

export consignment of Cape potstill brandy<br />

being sent to London in 1880. Since then,<br />

the Nels of Boplaas have built a legacy<br />

synonymous with the finest Cape Ports,<br />

fortified Muscats, Cape potstill brandy and<br />

world-class red and white table wines.<br />
