Peter Falke Wines – Excellent wines from a unique terroir

The Peter Falke Wines winery is located on the Groenvlei Farm in the picturesque Stellenbosch region at the slopes of the famous Helderberg Mountains. The winery is owned by Peter Falke, the famous German hosier, along with his French wife Daniele. The wine farm’s origins go back to the 18th century yet it was not until the late 1990s when it reached its full potential. The old Cape Dutch style was elegantly mixed with contemporary modernity.

The wine region Stellenbosch is […]
