Wildekrans was purchased in the 1970's and set up as a mixed farming operation of wheat, cattle, sheep, fruit and wine and table grapes. In 1989 Dr Bruce Elkin gave up the city life and private dental practise for the fresh country air and moved to Wildekrans.
Today Only grapes planted and raised on Wildekrans under the watchful eye of a specialist vineyard team are selected for the cellar, then the best of the best wines are selected to be bottled under the Wildekrans label.
The goal at Wildekrans is to produce wines that reflect the life and personality of the farm, and for winemaking to be part of a simpler, uncomplicated way of life.
