Capensis means “from the Cape” and they specialise in Chardonnay only. Just over 10 years ago, Jackson Family Wines founded Capensis with 8 hectares under vine in the mountainous slopes of the Banghoek Valley in Stellenbosch. Capensis established their high elevation Fijnbosch Vineyards to produce Chardonnay that was reflective of the Stellenbosch region bringing pronounced citrus notes, structure, refinement and acidity. Capensis incorporate grapes from other regions to blend with the Fijnbosch grapes. These include those from Kaaimansgat Vineyards, Bruwer Vineyards, Nooitgedacht Vineyards and Vleiplaas Vineyards. The Kliphuis tasting room was built with repurposed timber and stonework to blend into the surroundings and is open by appointment only.
