La Bourgogne once formed a part of the farm Bourgogne which was one of the first Huguenot farms dating back to 1694. Simon van der Stel granted the farm to Pierre de Villiers. In 1800, the Le Roux family first became involved in the managing of the farm and today. La Bourgogne was bought in 2003 by the late George Mayer to produce olive oil. There were no olive trees at the time but there was 1 hectare of Sémillon grapes. Adjoining land was purchased in 2005 with the result that the 23-hectare property now has 4 hectares of Chardonnay, Sémillon, Viognier, Malbec and Shiraz vines together with 4 hectares of olives and 9 hectares of plums.
