Tonight 13 July

Bitty Meades from Wine and More will be presenting

wines from the boutique cellar,

De Heuvel Wines



De Heuvel started out as De Hoop 1714, making it one of the oldest farms in
the Tulbagh-Wolsely area. 

In 1991, Antonio Leonardo Bianco purchased the farm In 1991.  He was
convinced he could establish a name for himself due to the exceptional
quality of the grapes. 

1999 thus saw the release of the first Bianco label.

Now, some 12 years later, De Heuvel's quality of produce has improved to
such a point that they are now considered a premium styled, boutique cellar
- a reputation they intend to build on in the future.
