Terrior
The climate, location and soil on the slopes of the Simonsberg create excellent conditions for the cultivation of high quality grapes and some of the best known wines of the Cape are made here, including those of Lievland. The different west, north and eastern slopes bring about favourable intervals between ripening of the grapes, this enables the winemaker to harvest every block of vineyard at optimum ripeness. The harvest per vine is limited by dryland farming, leaner soils, sparse fertilization and more vines per hectare. Together with a difference in height between the highest and lowest vineyards of 155m, the above factors endow Lievland with an exceptional meso-climate which gives the estate's wines its individual character.
