Tulbagh Mountain Vineyards’ History

Tulbagh Mountain Vineyards was established in 1998 when George and Vanessa Austin and Jason and Jennifer Scott realized their dream of owning a wine estate together was actually achievable while on vacation in Cape Town, South Africa. In January of 2000, the group purchased a farm in the Tulbagh Mountains and worked to convert the land into a vibrant vineyard. Today, the winery produces three varieties of grapes and is one of South Africa’s most successful and widely loved wine brands.
