Today brothers Fred and Manie Viljoen continue this proud tradition and, after humble beginnings in 1998, they are producing award-winning wines with global appeal.
Viljoensdrift’s success can be attributed to their pioneering spirit, the quality of teamwork from vineyard to cellar and their deep-rooted commitment to working in harmony with nature. Five generations of Viljoens have lovingly toiled the fertile deep alluvial, calciferous-rich soils fed by the life-giving Breede River which allow the vineyards to flourish. The terror lends itself exceptionally well to the growing of noble varietals such as Shiraz, Pinotage and Chardonnay.
Wine tourists can expect much more from Viljoensdrift than just a taste of their distinctive wines. A visit to this peaceful haven, a mere 90 minutes from Cape Town, also promises an inspirational riverside experience including a relaxing boat trip on the tranquil waters of the Breede River, a taste adventure from the deli and a gourmet picnic on the banks of the river
Hi Viljoensdrift, Thank you very much, think this was my 4th of 5th time on the cruise. In years... - Anthony van Tonder.

Hi Viljoensdrift, Thank you very much, think this was my 4th of 5th time on the cruise. In years gone by I par-timed as an accredited and registered tour guide, with my own 16 seater bus. So I have on many occasions brought visitors and tourists to Viljoensdrift, both separate and during the Wacky Wine festival, my favorite's used to be Klipdrift and Viljoensdrift. So much so, that as part of my "package deal", every year I used to purchase the first sitting at Klipdrift tasting, with Viljoensdrift being my next port of call. Back to our most recent River Cruise experience, I took my family, spent +-R1k between cruise tickets and the shop, the experience was worth every cent. Thank you

The boat experience was very great and enjoyable. We shall had very good weather. The shop assistance was disappointing. We knocked and shouted "Hello" several times. We eventually had to go behind them counter to the back to see that 4 staff members were in hearing distance of us, but just chatting together ignoring the customers. We would think, if there was good communication in the business, the shop staff should be aware of a group coming to the boat trip and available at front of shop.
