Seven Springs Vineyards
Winery Description
Location and History
Seven Springs is located between Shaws Mountain to the north and the Tesselaarsdal Mountain Range to the south. Their vineyards lay on the scenic R320 Hemel-en-Aarde mountain road between the coastal town of Hermanus (25 minutes away) and the spa town of Caledon (15 minutes away). Tim and Vaughan Pearson and a small team run this winery with dedication and passion.
Tim and Vaughan, who are British, live in the UK and visit Seven Springs every year from January to March. During this time, they enjoy welcoming visitors to the winery. Pieter Kruger was recently appointed as winemaker and GM. Himself, his wife Gabbi and their son recently returned to South Africa after living in England.
