Words escape us right now. The loss and devastatio Words escape us right now. The loss and devastation is hard to fathom.
It’s more than just the water. It’s more than the It’s more than just the water. It’s more than the damage, the cleanup that lies ahead. It’s dealing with the realisation that despite your best efforts, your best preparations, it was not enough. It’s facing your human-ness and picking up the pieces and keeping moving. It’s realising you are one of the lucky ones, still here to tell the tale. Still able to try again.

Everyone is safe — our staff, their families, our animals, our cellar and our homes. Not everyone in the valley can say the same.

If you’d like to support us, or any winery going through this — order a bottle when you see it on a wine list, pick one up at your local retailer, or shop online. Link in bio 🍷

Love, the Springfield team x

🚜🔨🏗️ IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 🔨🚜🏗️ From mid-May unt 🚜🔨🏗️ IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 🔨🚜🏗️

From mid-May until late November 2026 our current offices and tasting room will be under construction, making way for a bigger and better space to share our wines in. During this time, we will be making use of a temporary tasting room in our underground cellar. 

Our opening hours remain the same, however seating is more limited & on a first come, first served basis. There will be clear signage erected to make sure you find us 🍷

We are so excited to share our new and improved space this summer - but until then things might be a bit slower, and a bit less polished while we make the best of a temporary solution. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding during this disruptive yet exciting time!

For any queries please feel free to contact us on 023 626 3661 or at tastingroom@springfieldestate.com
This is just a glimpse of how many rocks are unear This is just a glimpse of how many rocks are unearthed when we prepare a small block for planting! Tons and tons of rocks are removed just to make planting a new vineyard feasible. 

The rocks force the vines to work harder for nutrients and water, resulting in fewer bunches of grapes that are more concentrated in flavour - truly Life from Stone!

Last day of Harvest 2026! While the work in the ce Last day of Harvest 2026! While the work in the cellar is not yet done, the end is in sight! 
This year was a hectic one, with a big crop and unseasonal rains adding an extra challenge towards the end. Luckily we got all the whites in before the weather turned and prepared well to protect the reds. All the grapes in the cellar are super healthy and at their peak thanks to our hardworking teams.

Today marks not only the birthday of the South Afr Today marks not only the birthday of the South African wine industry, but the end of our white wine harvest for 2026 - 11 days earlier than last year and a bumper crop! The team really had to burn the candle on both ends to get this one in on time and now they can breathe easy for a few days before the reds are optimally ripe (although not TOO easy, we are already checking the sugars on the Cab Franc 🥴). 

I wonder what Jan van Riebeek would have had to say about how the SA wine industry looks 367 years later??

When you grow mostly one cultivar, the challenge i When you grow mostly one cultivar, the challenge is not variety but timing. Everything ripens together. What sounds straightforward is anything but. The harvest window narrows to two or three intense weeks where every decision matters. There is no easing in. Only focus, resolve, and the quiet pressure of getting each parcel in at exactly the right moment.

This is harvest as choreography. Night after night, a familiar cast gathers and the rhythm begins. Harvesters move steadily through the rows. Quad bikes circle with dry ice, guarding freshness. Tractors stand ready, waiting their turn to deliver fruit to the cellar. While most of the world sleeps, a small crew carries the weight of the season. Few in number, essential in every way. The heartbeat of the farm.

From the inside, it feels unending. Fatigue blurs the days and nights together. Yet if all goes to plan, our white grapes will be safely home by Saturday. A brief exhale before the reds take their turn.

This is how we work at Springfield.
This is how we make Sauvignon that speaks clearly of place and season.

Its been a scorcher of a weekend with plenty of ho Its been a scorcher of a weekend with plenty of hot days lying ahead! We harvested some beautiful chardonnay this morning, starting at midnight to beat the heat of the day. All done and dusted at 9:30 am this morning!
2026 is here and we started off with a bang bringi 2026 is here and we started off with a bang bringing in some beautiful Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for our Garuzis Cap Classique this week 🍇

Harvest is looking to be an early one this year, crop is slightly bigger than last year and quality is 💯 - the grapes are incredibly healthy and  we can’t wait to see what this vintage has in store. 

Our interns start next week and we will be kicking off in earnest in a few days - so follow along for the ride that is #SAHarvest2026
What an honour to have our wines poured at @kraakt What an honour to have our wines poured at @kraaktafel last month 🥂

A true once-in-a-lifetime experience, a feast for the senses - the magic that only @hannes_van_kraak and the team at @kraak.co.za  can create!
December has crept up on us again, the vineyards h December has crept up on us again, the vineyards humming, the cellar buzzing, and the days stretching long into golden evenings. It is the time of year when everything feels full. Full schedules, full hearts, full tables.
Around here we measure years slightly differently. Not by calendars, but by what was bottled, what was harvested, what was shared around a lunch table or poured for a celebration. And this year has been no different. It has been generous. Demanding. Sparkly in all the right moments. One of those years that reminds you why wine is such a beautiful thread through a life.
As we head into the holidays, I find myself thinking less about presents and more about presence. The quiet rituals that make this season what it is. Setting a table in the shade. A watermelon floating in the pool. The first pop of a cork on Christmas morning - a Christmas miracle, we always joke. A cold glass passed to someone you love. A quick drink that somehow turns into a three hour catch up. Little things that become the big things.
If you are planning your own festive table, I hope you will let Springfield be part of it. Whether it is something bright and joyful for long summer lunches, something serious for slow evenings, or bubbles for that moment when everyone finally arrives and settles in. Good wine has a way of holding memories still, and I like to imagine a few of ours finding their way to your family too.
This is also the time of year when many people look for a gift with a little meaning behind it. If you feel the same, consider gifting someone a Springfield Wine Club membership. It is the gift that keeps unfolding throughout the year. Four seasonal boxes of carefully chosen wines, each one designed around the moments that shape the months ahead. A little surprise at the door. A sense of belonging to the farm. And a chance for someone you love to discover bottles they would never have picked for themselves. It is simple, thoughtful, and always well received.
To make sure the couriers can reach you in time for Christmas, please place your orders by 11 December. After that the holiday rush tends to take over and we cannot guarantee delivery before the 24th.
