Morgenster Estate

Morgenster Estate Situated near the foothills of the Helderberg Mountain in Somerset West, we produce award-winning Bo

Morgenster covers 200 hectares, 50 of which are under olive groves covering 17 top Italian varieties. A little over 20 hectares are under vines, mainly Bordeaux varieties of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a small vineyard of Petit Verdot, which go into the Estate’s flagship Morgenster and its sibling label Lourens River Valley blends. Since Bertrand designs his wines to age well, h

e holds back a large percentage at launch to enable them to mature in perfect conditions, releasing them when they are judged to be ready. There are also a couple of hectares of Italian varieties, Nebbiolo and Sangiovese, which produce Bertrand’s cherished Italian Collection wines of Tosca – a super Tuscan blend, Nabucco, a pure Nebbiolo, and Caruso, the Estate’s Sangiovese rosé. The Estate also has a white Bordeaux blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc. Wines from grapes harvested from the estate’s replanted vineyards, which are not deemed ready yet for the Bordeaux blends, are released as single cultivar wines under the NU label (pronounced “new”). The vineyards overlook the Estate’s lovely tasting room which was designed by Revel Fox. This is next to the maturation cellar where vintages dating back to 1999 are aging to perfection, offering visitors unique vertical tastings. The tasting room also offers olive oil and olive tastings of intriguing complexity.

Some places are worth taking your time in. 🍷

The Tasting Room at Morgenster is most certainly one of them - where every experience offers its own expression of the estate.

From our Olive Oil and Wine Tasting to the depth of our Bordeaux Style Tasting and the elegance of The Giulio Range - each one has been crafted to showcase what makes Morgenster, Morgenster.

For something truly indulgent, the Giulio Experience for Two includes five Italian varietal wines, an Italian-inspired platter, and two glasses from The Giulio Range - designed for slow afternoons shared well.

Join us in The Tasting Room and leave knowing exactly what you love ❤️
