About Me

My photo
Yonder Hill, a boutique winery, nestles up against the Helderberg just off the R44 between Stellenbosch and Somerset West. This 13 hectare farm is owned by the Naude. The farm is known for its soft and easy-drinking style of wines and concentrates on the Red cultivars which the Helderberg region is famous for. Our classic range, Nicola, Merlot, and Inanda enjoys local and international acclaim. We have introduced a value-for-money range consisting of Y-Merlot, Y-Shiraz and Y-Sauvignon Blanc. Both the wine and Olyfberg olive products can comfortably be described as young, frisky, approachable and friendly, just like the people working on the Estate - and sales over the past few years have proven the wines' popularity with the South African market. Come and visit Yonder Hill to enjoy peace and harmony; taste our Wines and Olyfberg products. You are sure to experience a uniqueness and a special sense of something that leaves you feeling uplifted.

From the beginning to the end

Our beloved and loyal worker of 14 years; Trudie Du Plessis; retired on 28 February 2011. Trudie, part of the Naudé family, joined Yonder Hill in 1997, before we actually had a tasting room. She viewed the first cornerstone being laid, and was one big role-player in the success story of the farm. Trudie, we will miss you, but as Mr Naudé said, this is not good buy. Enjoy this part of your life!!!!!!!  See Trudie on the left, and Anne on the right.


We are in the middle of harvest, and everything is going well. With the new revised label being launched shortly, a new website facelift, and first released Sauvignon Blanc, Yonder Hill promises to bring quality and uniqueness to each member of the public when visiting.  Visit our Facebook page to view pictures.

This is one of the many pictures to be seen in our website gallery, taken by well know photographer and son, Daniel Naudé. Make sure to visit his website: http://www.wiphond.co.za/ to see more of his work.
