Boplaas
Karoo wine estate in Calitzdorp
Boplaas Family Vineyards & Distilling is a six-generation family business. It is situated in the picturesque town of Calitzdorp, among the foothills of the Swartberg Mountains in the Klein Karoo.
Boplaas’ history of distilling dates back to 1880, when the first order of potstill brandy casks was sent to Cape Town harbor by ox-wagon for delivery to London. After the repeal of distilling licenses in the early 1920s, Boplaas’ copper pot still lay dormant for almost 70 years until it was fired up again in 1989. Boplaas has received numerous accolades for its Potstill Brandy, wines, port-styled wines, and recently Whisky as well.
