The next vintage is already beginning in the vineyards. ⁠

While the team works hard to finish pruning across Bon Courage Estate, the first signs of the new season are already appearing, with budding beginning in our Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards.⁠

W**emaker Phillip Viljoen is anticipating an early 2027 harvest, while back in the cellar, the red w**es are progressing beautifully as the team continues their work with the barrels.⁠

There’s plenty happening, plenty to look forward to, and as Phillip says, plenty of reason to stay positive and optimistic about the vintage ahead.⁠

There’s popping a bottle… and then there’s sabrage. 🥂⚔️⁠

This Cap Classique Day, we’re celebrating the Bon Courage way, with a little theatre, plenty of bubbles and a toast to the craftsmanship behind South Africa’s Cap Classique.⁠

Made using the traditional method, with the second fermentation taking place in the bottle, Cap Classique is something distinctly South African and well worth celebrating.⁠

Here’s to beautiful bubbles, new beginnings and the first day of spring.⁠

Happy Cap Classique Day from Bon Courage Estate! 🥂⁠

Winter evenings call for something a little sweeter.⁠

As the fire crackles and the temperature drops, there's no better companion than a glass of Bon Courage White Muscadel. Rich and golden in colour, it reveals an intense Muscat and raisin bouquet, beautifully echoed on the palate, before finishing with a long, lingering aftertaste.⁠

Whether you're ending a meal or simply unwinding by the fire, this beautifully balanced dessert w**e is made to be savoured.⁠

Available from Bon Courage Estate, online and at your nearest retailer.⁠

Every great w**e begins with the ground beneath our feet.⁠

In the world of w**e, we call it terroir. It's the unique combination of soil, climate, elevation and landscape that gives every vineyard its own personality. It's why the same grape, grown in a different place, will never taste quite the same.⁠

At Bon Courage Estate, our soils have quietly shaped our w**es for generations. They nourish the vines, challenge their roots to grow deeper, and leave their signature on every vintage we produce.⁠

Long before the grapes are picked and the w**e is poured, the story begins here, in the soil.⁠

Available from Bon Courage Estate, online and at your nearest retailer.⁠

Some w**es are made to be enjoyed. Others are made to be remembered.⁠

The Inkara Shiraz is one of those w**es.⁠

Crafted in limited quantities, this flagship w**e represents Bon Courage Estate's unwavering pursuit of excellence. Every bottle is the result of careful vineyard selection, meticulous w**emaking and the patience to let quality lead the way.⁠

For Jacques Bruwer, Inkara is more than a label. It's a reflection of everything Bon Courage Estate stands for: craftsmanship, consistency and a commitment to producing w**es that leave a lasting impression.⁠

Inkará is a name formed from the blending of his three children’s names - Inge, Karli, and André and that it pays tribute to the fourth generation.⁠

Some moments deserve an extraordinary w**e. Inkara was made for exactly those moments.⁠

Available from Bon Courage Estate, online and at your nearest retailer.⁠
