Where the ocean meets the mountain,
where the wild winds softly play,
there is a wine that carries
the spirit of the coast away.

A horizon painted golden,
a breeze that tastes of salt,
a table set for lingering,
where time forgets to halt.

From earth beneath the vineyards,
from skies of endless blue,
comes something worth savouring -
a moment made for you.

So let the world grow quieter,
let the evening drift and slow,
relax with a glass of Whalehaven in hand,
and let the good tide flow.

Whalehaven. Live the coastal life. ✨🥂

Whalehaven Seascape Reserve Chardonnay 2022 - - Chardonnay with the precision, poise and mineral tension worthy of the finest table.

From the cool, maritime Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, the 2022 vintage opens with delicate honeysuckle, wet limestone and lemon zest, leading into a taut, finely textured palate layered with Granny Smith apple, crushed river stone and lemon pith. A subtle whisper of sea-breeze salinity brings length and definition, while carefully integrated oak adds quiet complexity rather than weight.

Elegant yet expressive. Mineral yet generous. Fresh, precise and lingering.

A wine made not simply to accompany fine dining, but to belong at its table.

The coast is more than a place. It’s a way of living.

Salt in the air. Sun on the horizon. Long lunches that turn into golden afternoons. And a glass of Whalehaven poured slowly, with nowhere else to be.

Born where the Hemel-en-Aarde meets the sea, Whalehaven is an invitation to embrace the coastal life — relaxed, refined, and beautifully untamed.

Live by the coast. Drink in the moment. Live Whalehaven. ✨

An icon of the coast.

The Whalehaven Coastal Sauvignon Blanc is a vintage worth lingering over - crisp, refined and alive with mineral freshness.

Think green apple and grapefruit zest, delicate tropical fruit, a touch of salinity and that distinctive flinty minerality that gives the wine its almost glacial freshness.
Made for every table. Every occasion. And, quite possibly, another glass.

Whalehaven Sauvignon Blanc. Coastal by nature. Iconic by character.

Whalehaven. Live by the coast.

A taste of the coast, poured at one of Cape Town’s most iconic tables. ✨

Whalehaven Terroir Chardonnay captures the cool-climate character of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley - elegant, mineral and beautifully restrained, with bright citrus, subtle salinity and a freshness that keeps you coming back for another sip.

Now pouring at The Pot Luck Club, known for its open-plan kitchen, bold global flavours and signature small-plate sharing style, it’s the kind of Cape Town setting where good food, good wine and good company naturally come together.

So take your seat, order a few plates for the table, and let Whalehaven Terroir Chardonnay be part of the experience.

Cape Town tastes better by the glass. ✨

Born beside the coast, shaped by the sea.

The Whalehaven Coastal Pinotage 2023 captures the character of South Africa in every glass - vibrant red fruit, wild fynbos and subtle spice, balanced by fresh coastal elegance and a beautifully structured finish.

A Pinotage with a sense of place. A vintage that brings the Cape a little closer. 🍷
