Deux Frerès Wines
Winery Description
Location and History
Situated in the picturesque Simonsberg foothills, Deux Frères is part of the renowned Stellenbosch wine route. This region is characterised by its diverse terroir, which includes well-drained soils that are ideal for viticulture. The vineyard is owned and operated by the Du Toit family, who have implemented sustainable farming practices on their property. Deux Frères was founded in 2008 when brothers Retief and Stephan du Toit decided to continue the heritage as a “wine family” left to them by their mother and stepfather, Hester and Marc Wiehe. The estate is known for its commitment to producing high-quality wines with a focus on craftsmanship and tradition. With only 5,000 cases produced annually, Deux Frères maintains an intimate boutique approach to winemaking. The scenic views surrounding the vineyard, including rolling hills and lush landscapes, enhance the overall experience for guests visiting the wine farm.
Wine Tasting
At Deux Frères, wine tastings present an enjoyable opportunity for guests to engage with the winery's offerings in a relaxed atmosphere. The featured wines include the 2018 Tribute, which captivates with its aromatic profile of winter berries, violets, and hedgerow fruits. The tastings are designed to be informal yet informative, allowing visitors to explore the unique qualities of each wine. This engaging experience fosters a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship that goes into each bottle produced at the estate.
The Tasting Room can accommodate just 6 guests, however our outside tasting area hosts an additional 21 guests. Pre-booking is recommended but is essential should you wish to enjoy a food and wine pairing or food platter.
