Our vineyards are located on four diverse farms in the Western Cape province of South Africa, enabling the Robertson and Franschhoek Cellars to have access to grape varietals grown in the climatic conditions and soils to which they are best suited. Marco Ventrella, our viticulturist, oversees the 4 farms. However, each farm is individually tended for by the respective Vineyard Manager; Franschhoek (97ha) and Stellenbosch (Skoongesig 36ha and Vredenhof 64ha) falls under Derek Hamraan and Pieter Fouche looks after Madeba in Robertson (i89ha). The two farms in the Firgrove area in Stellenbosch's Helderberg district, provide most of the premium red varietals to the Graham Beck range. The Stellenbosch region is universally recognised as South Africa's premier wine region due to its excellent terroir suited to the growing of a variety of premium red cultivars. An extensive renewal programme has resulted in premier red and white varietals on all our farms. Great care has been taken to match the obliging micro-chrnates and rich variety of soils with the most suitable varietal. This ensures our winemakers have access to optimum quality fruit from which to make their specific wines.
