About

Lelienfontein, on Hexberg Road outside Wellington, has been in the Bosman family since 1810, and the eighth generation went back to making wine here in 2007 after decades as a vine nursery. The tasting room is in the 270-year-old cellar, with cheese platters and bitterballen by the fire and lawns under old trees, and on weekdays a guide takes visitors through the cellar and a small farm museum.
