KLAWERVLEI WINE ESTATE
Position, History and Future
Klawervlei translates to Clover
Plain. This historic farm is situated
at the northern part of the famous Stellenbosch Wine
Route and in one of the oldest wine growing areas
of South Africa.
The farm is centrally located
to a number of existing old and new golf courses,
it is only minutes away from Cape Town and Paarl and
has easy access to the Cape Town International Airport.
Klawervlei has beautiful views of Table Mountain and
the sunsets are breathtakingly spectacular. Two small
lakes on the farm attract a variety of wildlife to
the farm and create a paradise for nature lovers and
birdwatchers.
The new owners Chris de Jager,
Werner Luig and Christoph Hammel are ready to develop
all 115 hectares into a Wine Estate of note. By planting
the latest clones and select cultivars, modernising
the existing cellar, introducing a first class guesthouse
and attractive food venue to the farm, Klawervlei
will soon be one of the renowned meeting places in
the Cape of Good Hope. The new buildings which are
planned will combine classical elegance and an interpretation
of the well established Cape architecture. Generous
pastures and paddocks offer a variety of possibilities
to the Equestrian fraternity. The horse trails, out
rides and arenas will satisfy any caring horse lover.
New owners are encouraged to invest in homesteads
which will satisfy every need, perfecting country
living only minutes away from the most beautiful hometown
in the world with awesome views of Table Mountain
to the northwest and the Stellenbosch mountains to
the East.
