Nestled along the scenic Helshoogte Pass between Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, Le Pommier Wine Estate captures the relaxed charm of the Cape Winelands. Once home to apple orchards — its name means “the apple tree” in French — the estate now thrives as a boutique vineyard celebrated for its warm hospitality, rustic elegance and sun-soaked atmosphere.
Wines with Heart and Heritage
Le Pommier’s wines reflect the unique character of the Banhoek Valley, shaped by cool mountain breezes and mineral-rich soils. Each bottle tells a story of place and passion, crafted with care and integrity.
The Sauvignon Blanc remains a standout — crisp and vibrant with citrus, lime and tropical fruit notes. Its mineral edge and refreshing acidity make it the perfect companion to seafood or a summer salad.
The Maraai Rosé is pure sunshine in a glass — dry, elegant and fruit-forward, with aromas of strawberry and gooseberry. Made primarily from Sauvignon Blanc with a touch of Cabernet Franc, it’s a refreshing favourite for picnics, long lunches or sunset drinks.
Richer, Deeper Flavours
For those who prefer structure and depth, The Mac Cabernet Franc/Malbec blend offers layers of blackberry, mulberry and velvety tannins, while the Summercourt Chardonnay brings balance with subtle oak, tropical fruit and a hint of minerality.
Together, these wines express the estate’s diverse terroir — each one distinct, yet all crafted with authenticity and heart.
A Country-Style Experience
At the heart of Le Pommier is its welcoming restaurant, where traditional South African country cooking meets farm-fresh ingredients. Think generous portions, homemade flavours and panoramic vineyard views — a setting where food, wine and friendship come together naturally.
Visitors can also explore the estate’s wine tastings or enjoy Le Pommier wines from home through their online store, complete with tasting notes and food-pairing tips.
Where Summer Never Ends
Whether you’re relaxing on the terrace, unwinding by the pool or sharing a bottle with friends around the braai, Le Pommier wines embody the joy of summer living. Each sip speaks of authenticity, simplicity and a deep love for the land.
At Le Pommier, summer isn’t just a season — it’s a way of life, poured into every glass and shared with a smile.
