A Proud Legacy...
Van Loveren has been in the Retief family
since 1937 when Hennie Retief snr acquired
the land in the Robertson Valley and named it
after Christina van Loveren, an ancestor of his
new bride, Jean van Zyl. When his sons,
Nico & Wynand joined him on the farm they
acquired more land and in 1980, 500
cases of Premium Grand Cru, the first bottled
Van Loveren wine, was launched.
Conservation
Van Loveren is a proud member of the
Wine and Biodiversity initiative and
over 500 ha of our land has been set
aside to conserve the natural eco
systems on the farm. This is 50% more
than that of our vineyard footprint.
Vision
To be a growing family business, rooted in the
South African wine industry, creating successful
brands and inspired to stay innovative and be
sustainable for future generations.

Tangled Tree
If trees could speak, what stories they would tell! In 1941 Jean Retief planted a Rhus Lancea tree in the garden at
Van Loveren. Her husband Hennie wanted to prove to her that it was the same Karee tree that grew along the river,
and planted a shoot of the Karee next to her tree. Today their two identical trees have intertwined into one
magnificent tree. Inspired by this story, weve created an eco-friendly range of wines, bursting with flavour!
