The story of Winshaw Vineyards is one of adventure, pioneering spirit, and family heritage. It began with Dr. William Charles Winshaw, a man whose remarkable life took him from cowboy to Texas Ranger, gambler, and ultimately, winemaker in the Stellenbosch Valley.
In 1925, he founded Stellenbosch Farmers Winery (SFW) laying the foundation for a legacy that would span generations. Alongside his son Bill, the Winshaws helped establish many iconic brands like Chateau Libertas, Tassenberg and Zonnebloem that are still with us today.
Now, the fourth generation of Winshaws proudly carries forward this tradition, producing wines on the farm and vineyards planted by their father, the late John Winshaw. Nestled on the South Western side of Stellenbosch, near the Eerste River and just a stone’s throw from the ocean.
“With every bottle, we honour the adventurous spirit and commitment to quality that defined our forebears. From our responsibly raised grass-fed beef and pasture-raised eggs to our carefully crafted wines, every product tells a story of our land.”
