Eagle's Nest

Eagles’ Nest features some of the steepest vineyards in the Cape Winelands ranging from 100m – 400m above sea level. The steep terraces are chizzled out of decomposed granite and clay with a high concentration of table mountain sand stone rock.

The farm’s origins can be traced back to 1836 when it was used as a refreshment station between the area now known as Wynberg in the east, and the harbour of Hout Bay in the west. In order to make this journey, travellers had to cross the mountain pass, now known as Constantia Neck.
