All I can say is wow....what a beautiful location. We went for a cheeky wine tasting with a platter for breakfast. This place is truly stunning...any gardeners dream. The platter was simplistic in design, but full of flavour. Beware the parmesan...it has a potent kick. The wine was really great, my favourite was the Maestro Blue...rich and full bodied. Definitely in my top 10 wine farm's list.

Visited for an afternoon tasting and had the most wonderful experience. The tasting took place on a lovely patio with amazing views of the vineyard and was nice and quiet. The tables are nicely spaced so you feel as though you have some privacy. The service from the gentleman who led our tasting was fantastic and he was so knowledgeable and provided a down to earth tasting experience. The wines were excellent with special attention going to the Maestro red and white blend. This was our favourite tasting experience in Stellenbosch!

This is a farm that's out of the way and out of the hustle of the more commercial wine estates. And much better for it. The drive to the farm is scenic and enjoyable.

Beautiful wines. Well worth a visit. We recommend the Chenin and the Maestro Blue.

DeMorgenzon Stellenbosch: Luxury Wine Tasting Experience

DeMorgenzon, meaning 'the morning sun' in Dutch, was established in 2003 by Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum. The estate spans 90 hectares, with 55 hectares dedicated to vineyards. It is renowned for its commitment to biodiversity and ecological sensitivity, with wildflowers flourishing between the vines.

DeMorgenzon Stellenbosch: A Harmonious Blend of Nature and Winemaking History in South Africa's Cape Winelands Region.

Nestled along Stellenbosch Kloof Road in the picturesque town of Stellenbosch, South Africa, DeMorgenzon is not just a wine estate; it is a vibrant celebration of nature, innovation, and exquisite winemaking. Established in 2003 by visionary couple Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum, this 91-hectare estate has become a beacon of ecological sustainability and sensory delight, attracting foodies, wine lovers, and travelers eager to experience its unique charm.

The origins and vision behind DeMorgenzon

The name DeMorgenzon, which translates to 'the morning sun,' reflects the estate's deep connection to natural rhythms and the nurturing power of sunlight. When Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum acquired the property in 2003, they embarked on an ambitious transformation to create a flourishing garden vineyard. This vision prioritized biodiversity and harmony between the vines and the surrounding environment, setting DeMorgenzon apart from typical wine farms in the region.

Innovative practices and commitment to biodiversity

Spanning 91 hectares, with 55 hectares dedicated to vineyards, DeMorgenzon stands out for its ecological richness. Wildflowers thrive abundantly between the vines, creating a colorful carpet that supports beneficial insects and enhances the vineyard’s health naturally. This commitment to biodiversity not only sustains the environment but also contributes to the exceptional quality and complexity of the estate’s wines.

A truly unique hallmark of DeMorgenzon is their use of classical music to influence grape ripening.

 Since 2009, Baroque and early Classical compositions are played in the vineyards to create an enriching atmosphere that experts say enhances the grapes’ development and complexity. This fusion of art, science, and nature epitomizes the estate’s innovative spirit.

Today, DeMorgenzon is celebrated not only for its outstanding wines but also for the breathtaking views and serene ambiance it offers. Visitors can enjoy tastings on quiet patios overlooking the vineyard, where knowledgeable hosts share the estate’s fascinating story and passion for sustainable winemaking. Whether savoring the rich Maestro blends or exploring the aromatic Chenin Blanc, guests are treated to an authentic Stellenbosch wine farm experience that combines tradition with contemporary flair.
