Beaumont Wine Estate
Beaumont Wine Estate is family-owned and managed. It is situated in the heart of the town of Bot Rivier.
The farm, home to the region’s oldest wine cellar, was originally established in the 1700s by the Dutch East India Company as a supply farm producing fruit, vegetables, dairy, wine, and flour. Jayne and Raoul Beaumont bought the farm, Compagnes Drift, in 1974 and set about replanting the vineyards. The farm was transformed through hard work and an adventurous spirit. Raoul was a maverick of the vineyards and motorcycles and Jayne was an artist, teacher, and mother. Jayne pioneered the first wine, making small amounts of Pinotage bearing her hand-drawn label in the late 1970s.
Every visitor at Beaumont Wine Estate is welcomed with heart-warming hospitality into our Tasting Room and the Zest Deli & Kitchen. We only use the freshest produce and offer a seasonal menu that celebrates our local suppliers as well as what is being harvested off the farm. Accommodation at the farm is sumptuous and well-appointed.
The watermill at Beaumont Wines is over 200 years old and the wooden water wheel has been restored to full working order. Limited quantities of stone ground flour are being produced on the farm
Enjoy the gardens, MTB trails, walks, bird life and fishing opportunities.
