The Laborie Wine Estate has a history dating back more than three centuries and is one of the Western Cape's oldest and most renowned wine producing farms, producing a variety of excellent wines.

Laborie is named after the district of La Bri in France. The name was given by the first French Huguenot family, the prosperous Tailleferts, who settled on the farm in 1685. According to the famous French explorer, François Leguat who visited the Cape in 1698, Laborie's wine was "the best in the colony and similar to our small wines of Champagne".

Purchased in 1972 by KWV, the wine estate boasts a beautiful Manor House, an historic Wine Cellar, Guest House and Laborie Restaurant, set in luscious gardens.

The Laborie Tasting Room is the ideal venue in which to taste and buy the estate¹s sparkling, white, red and fortified wines, and its brandy. It's set amidst the scenic splendour of the Paarl Valley, with spectacular views of mountains and vineyards.
