Welmoed farm is located in Stellenbosch and it was passed on to Governor Simon van der Stel in 1690. Over the years, they have produced many top wines in the estate's cellar and have maintained their winemaking tradition with a solid reputation both in South African and other international markets.

The estate's range is led by varietal specifics and, placing quality ahead of price, these approachable wines combine a proud sense of history with Welmoed's distinctive, carefully crafted approach. The range comprises a Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Rosé, Pinotage, Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon — as well as a non-vintage Charmat Brut that adds a dash of sparkle to any occasion.

Welmoed Sauvignon Blanc 2009 has become a favourite for many, often served with crayfish, lobster, oysters and chargrilled fish dishes.
