Producer

Bellingham

South Africa

Bellingham is a historic South African producer in the Western Cape, founded in 1693 by Bernard and Fredagh Podlashuk, who transformed a neglected Franschhoek farm into a winery. The estate’s approach focuses on sourcing fine grapes, nurturing them from vine to bottle, and combining minimal intervention with meticulous cellar work. Its distinctive, food-friendly wines build on a legacy of pioneering many firsts in the South African wine industry.
