Altydgedacht Estate
Family-owned wine estate in Durbanville.
The Parker Family has been the custodians of Altydgedacht since 1852, a legacy spanning six generations. George Francis Parker, then aged 19, arrived at the Cape with his family in 1819, with one of the many groups of settlers sent by the English government to the Cape and the Australian colonies.
George remained at the Cape to become a merchant and later to acquire the farm, while the rest of the family settled in Australia. His perseverance laid the foundation for a new era for the farm and a 150-year-old ownership.
