Nestled in a region blessed by superlative vineyards, exquisite Flamingoes and rare orchids, Darling Cellars is located close to the tiny hamlet of Darling on the cool West Coast of South Africa. As a privately owned winery with almost 1,700ha under vine, situated mainly in the newly discovered premium vineyard of "Groenekloof", our wines are set to rival the best in the Cape.
