Grande Provence Estate wears her 300-year history with dignity. Sitting in the magnificent Franschhoek Valley in South Africa's Western Cape, her lush vines spread across 30 hectares with gentle vistas over the valley floor, at odds almost with the rugged mountains beyond

This is heartland South African wine country. Capturing the essence of the heritage of this gracious Estate, are Grande Provence's owners and design team. The honest simplicity of its Cape Dutch architecture, in harmony with the precision of modern design, brings a pièce de résistance to the Franschhoek valley.
Framing the entry road are rows of vineyards, heavy with the promise of next year’s vintage. Here, one bears witness to the duality of old and new settling into an elegant co-existence: old trees take root amongst the 300-year old oaks and manicured hedges blend with the free form of the natural surroundings to create a landscaped Eden.
