A vineyard between heaven & earth

Cradled amid the hills of the Hemel-en-Aarde (Heaven and Earth) valley,
Bouchard Finlayson is widely acclaimed as one of South Africa’s leading boutique wine cellars.

With a terroir defined by both ancient soils and a cool maritime climate, the vineyards of Bouchard Finlayson are famous for producing award-winning
Pinot Noir, elegant Chardonnay and terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc, while inspired blends showcase the depth of skill and innovation in our winemaking team.

The Bouchard Finlayson cellar is conveniently located a scenic 90 minutes’ drive from Cape Town, close to the world-famous whale-watching centre of Hermanus.

Restorative treatments

Our Rasul treatment has been updated to create a skin-smoothing self-treatment that blends mineral-rich mud, gentle steam and heat to provide an experience that cleanses and rejuvenates. Mud is self-applied to the body, hair and face. The dry heat dries mud and allows the skin to draw out impurities from the body.
