About
Klein Simonsvlei, the home of Niel Joubert Wines lies on the slopes of the Simonsberg mountain, on the outskirts of Paarl in the Western Cape winelands. A large wine and fruit farm it has spectacular scenery, which includes five hills and ten dams fed from a natural mountain spring. There is abundant water and enough land diversity to accommodate the successful growing of apples, pears, peaches, plums, naartjies, lemons and blueberries, in addition to grapes. It has been owned since 1898 by the Joubert family, horticulturalists and grape growers by training, and is still run hands-on by individual family members, now in the 5th generation.

Let's talk facts about something completely random, like... ducks. Did you know that ducks are incredibly social animals, and can communicate with their siblings while they're still in their eggs? How cute is that? Their bills (as in their beaks, not their Eskom bills) are about as sensitive as human fingertips. Much like us South Africans, they have regional accents, and quack differently depending on where they live.
Also much like us South Africans, they tend to appear cool and calm on the surface, while just underneath, they're kicking madly to stay afloat and move forward. That's why there's nothing better than getting into your comfy bed at the end of a long, electricity-free day. Particularly if you have a 100% duck feather duvet like our main deal. Not so random after all, huh!
