Where Terroir and Craftsmanship Meet
Van Biljon Wines at Polkadraai Hills
The Winery
Van Biljon Wines thrives in the heart of the Polkadraai Hills, where our vineyard is perfectly situated on sun-kissed southern slopes. Benefiting from decomposed granite soils and the cooling breezes from False Bay, the unique terroir of our estate creates the ideal conditions for producing wines of remarkable complexity and depth.
The cooler microclimate slows down the ripening process, allowing our grapes more time to develop their rich, layered flavours before harvest. This exceptional climate and soil combination forms the backbone of our Bordeaux-style blends.
At Van Biljon, we hand-harvest each vine, carefully selecting only the finest fruit to ensure quality over quantity. The influence of our unique location is carried into the cellar, where minimal mechanical intervention allows the natural expression of the terroir to shine through. Each vintage reflects the character of our land, embodying the refined elegance and meticulous craftsmanship that define Van Biljon Wines.

Our wine – Cinq 2019
This Bordeaux-style blend makes a bold statement, with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot contributing to its powerful structure and expressive fruit composition. The classic oak character is seamlessly integrated with layers of ripe dark fruits, while fresh berry acidity from the Cabernet Franc brings vibrance and purity to the blend. The polished tannins—firm yet refined—are in perfect harmony with the wine’s rich fruit, leaving a lingering sensation of elegance and satisfaction with every sip.
Van Biljon Cinq has earned its place among the finest wines, gracing the tables of prestigious Michelin-starred restaurants in Belgium, England, and Scotland. With a reputation for excellence, this distinguished wine has also been selected for three consecutive years to be served in the Royal Box at the prestigious OUT-SOURCING! INC Royal Windsor Cup Final luncheon, held at the Guards Polo Club.
Each pour reflects a dedication to quality and craftsmanship, making it a truly celebrated offering on the world stage.
