Why Dombeya?

Dombeya Wines are created in the very heart of Stellenbosch, the spiritual home of South African wine. Our hand crafted wines reflect the passion we have for this region and are a faithful representation of the place where they were born.

The Dombeya tree is native to South Africa, with extraordinarily beautiful flowers that bring South Africa's spring season to life . Dombeya trees are dotted around our vineyards, their cycle of regeneration and renewal a fitting symbol of modern day South Africa.

Dombeya is a part of a country that is evolving and changing, each year growing into its new, dynamic, modern identity.

Winemaking

The wines of Dombeya are made by Rianie Strydom, one of South Africa's most celebrated winemakers. Since commencing winemaking duties at Dombeya in 2005, her wines have won numerous awards and gold medals, including a Veritas Awards Double-Gold Medal in 2007 for the 2005 Boulder Road Shiraz.
