De Grendel Wine Estate and Restaurant

Nestled high in the rugged mountains of the Ceres Plateau, De Grendel’s Op Die Berg range is unlike anything else in the Cape Winelands. Grown in one of the highest-altitude vineyard regions in the Western Cape and South Africa, between 960 and 1,060 metres above sea level, these wines carry the distinctive mark of place, climate, and pioneering vision.

While De Grendel is rooted in the historic Durbanville terroir, the Op Die Berg range represents the adventurous spirit of seeking out extraordinary vineyard sites where nature expresses itself with intensity and elegance. The wines are crafted from grapes grown on three exceptional farms owned by the Graaff Family: Dennekruin, Alhambra, and Rietfontein, all perched around the 1,000m contour and surrounded by snow-capped peaks in winter and apple orchards year-round.
