The Welmoed wines regularly come out as winners in a competition where supermarket wines are compared. That's in my honest taste. At Welmoed they go for the no-nonsense approach. Everything revolves around the taste of the grape, which they want to capture in the bottle. That is why you know exactly where you stand with the Welmoed wines. Each grape represents a type of wine that suits a certain moment. So it's easy to choose and enjoy. The winery is located on the outskirts of Stellenbosch.
