Steenberg Wine Estate
Steenberg – Stone Mountain or Mountain of Stone, (take your choice) – is the oldest wine farm in the Cape Peninsula. Situated in the suburb of Constantia, the original farm dates back to the days of Simon Van der Stel, whilst the current wine farm has been developed on that old farm site.
Babylonstoren Wine Estate
