At Klein Roosboom the elements combine in perfect harmony to create the enviable conditions that make their wines so special. The uniqueness allows each grape variety to be grown in the locale climatic conditions that suit it best. The south-facing slopes are suited to Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. The wines happily lodge their roots into rich Hutton, Oakleaf and Clovelly soils, extracting nourishment from the earth. As the fresh Atlantic breeze cools the vineyards, the crisp Cape air shapes the flavours of the grapes, and in turn, the quality of the wines.

Masiphumelele means “We will succeed” in Xhosa. This spirit of endurance was needed by the people for decades - and these words are still an expression of their hope of better times to come. In the early 1980’s a group of 400-500 black people started the first informal settlement close to where Masiphumelele is today - in the bushes around that area where today the huge Longbeach shopping mall is located. Under Apartheid laws these families were repeatedly chased away by force.
