De Krans – excellent wines from Klein Karoo

The brothers Boets and Strobel Nel have been creating excellent wines of the very highest standard on their family vineyard De Krans for over 30 years – in an area that at first glance does not look like a wine-growing region: Klein Karoo. In the dry semi-desert landscape, Portuguese grape varieties thrive particularly well and De Krans is one of the leading producers in the Cape, using them to make first-class wines that capture their unique terroir in Calitzdorp – just like the creations in the Broederskap collection.
