ABOUT OUR FARM

Ormonde Private Cellar is situated on the West Coast of South Africa, where the rugged Darling hills roll and fall along the contours of an ancient granite intrusion. These molten rocks, forced from the earth to 300m above sea level, guard the Atlantic Ocean while banks of fog bless the vineyard with coolness and moisture. The appreciation for accumulated knowledge and attention to

detail are principles Theo vows to when asked about the various accolades Ormonde has been awarded. Ormonde is proud to house in it's stable two Old Mutual trophies, as well as various Platinum, Gold and Double Gold medals over the years to mention but just a few. Wines tasted at the tasting room are exclusively available from the estate and selected restaurants. The serene atmosphere and personal experience at Ormonde promise our guests a memorable experience.

A Glimpse Back in Time...

This remarkable aerial photograph takes us back to the 1950-1960, when Langfontein Farm—the very farm on which Ormonde Wines stands today—was a thriving working dairy farm. Long before the vineyards were planted and wine became part of its story, these fields were home to traditional farming, with no vines in sight.

It's incredible to see how this beautiful piece of Darling's history has evolved over the decades while still preserving the character and charm of the land.

Do you remember Langfontein from those days, or have any stories or memories to share? We'd love to hear them in the comments.
