Lynx Wines Franschhoek

Lynx Wines Franschhoek

Lynx Wines is the smallest Wine Estate in the De Franschhoek Valley and is situated on the foothills of the Klein Drakenstein Mountains. It produces less that 2500 cases of high quality wine per annum all of which are grown, produced and bottled on the Estate. Since its first vintage in 2003 the Lynx range has grown and now stands at an impressive eleven different wines, but it was their red wines which brought them instant success. These reds are fruit driven and are best known for their smooth and elegant tannin structure. The vineyard produces approximately 90 tons of grapes per annum, of which 30 tons is kept for Lynx Wines and the rest of the grapes are sold to another private cellar. The Lynx cellar uses a lot of traditional equipment like open concrete fermenters, basket presses etc. to ensure that the primary flavours of the grapes is brought out, something which Lynx Wines are so well known for.

Lynx Wines offers cellar tours and wine tasting on the estate from Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 17:00 and on Saturdays and Sundays by appointment only.
