Situated on the Stellenbosch Wine Route, Zevenwacht
Estate has strong viticultural roots penetrating deep into the historic
past of South Africa. The land known as Langverwacht (Long Awaited)
was granted to Jean le Roux of Normandy, one of the first French Huguenot
wine farmers who fled from France in 1688. |

Pieter
de Waal, owner from 1798, extended the vineyards through the purchase
of the neighbouring property Zevenfontein. Divided when de Waal
sold Langverwacht to his son, Adrian, the two farms again became
a single property in 1978, under the new name of Zevenwacht. Interpreted,
perhaps, as Seven Expectations, the name exemplifies the abundant
delights that await visitors to the Zevenwacht Wine Estate. |
