A family-owned wine estate in the Robertson Valley known for innovation

Weltevrede is a family-owned wine estate in the Robertson Valley, South Africa. This family business was founded in 1912 with the oldest existing vineyard planted in 1926. The Weltevrede label was established as a wine brand in the 1940’s with official Weltevrede trademark registry in February 1950, making Weltevrede one of the oldest South African wine brands still owned and run by the same family. Over the years Weltevrede has become known for innovation.

Today, the tradition is carried out by the 4th generation owner and winemaker, Philip Jonker who has a particular passion for producing world class Chardonnay. The name ‘Weltevrede’ in Afrikaans means ‘Well satisfied’ or ‘to be content’ and this is the feeling we wish to leave with every customer who opens a bottle of Weltevrede wine.

Weltevrede is Chardonnay and Cap Classique only.
