Hasher Family Estate is a family-owned farm in South Africa’s sought after Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Founded by the Herten-Haspeslagh family, the farm represents the coming together of centuries of European farming heritage with a lifelong passion for Africa. Run by a young and passionate team, the farm proudly produces exceptional wines that celebrate the cool maritime climate and unique soil the area has become known for.
Planted on decomposed granite and clay soils, our vineyards benefit from the cooling influence of the South Atlantic Ocean, barely 5 kilometres away. We want the character of our grapes to tell the story of our terroir and therefore believe in growing only the cultivars that truly flourish in the area, resulting in a focus on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. We’ve also introduced regenerative agriculture principles and winter pruning techniques to further improve the quality of the fruit. This year, we’ve officially moved away from chemical fertilisers and herbicides.
