Haskell Pillars

The 2016 vintage was dry, warm and challenging for many farmers one of the driest years on record. We experience nothing different from the rest with a smaller crop and a few heatwaves as early as late October. The dry weather resulted in healthy berries and vines; however, the yield was lower and berries smaller resulting in wines that have a lot of concertation and colour.There is no better way to showcase Haskell Vineyards and its offerings than in a guest’s review. Together with its luxurious accommodation on site ‘The Residence’ and ‘The Cottage’, Haskell Vineyards inspires to celebrate the everyday moments that make life extraordinary. Haskell Vineyards graces the slopes of the Helderberg mountain range in Stellenbosch, an area known as the Golden Triangle, widely recognized as one of South Africa’s finest wine-growing sub-regions and home to many of South Africa’s top wines.
