Situated in the serene McGregor Valley within the Robertson Wine Valley,
Lord's Wines is a gem that blends a passion for cricket with the art of winemaking. Named after the famous Lord’s Cricket Ground in England, the farm celebrates its founder’s love for the sport while making world-class wines. At 500m above sea level, the vineyards are the highest in the Robertson Wine Valley enjoying a climate which is cooler than most and making it suitable for producing Pinot Noir and other award-winning wines from specially selected cultivars.
The farm is renowned for its cool-climate Pinot Noir, often referred to as the “heart” of their collection. These delicate yet vibrant wines reflect the region’s high-altitude conditions and careful viticulture practices. But the estate doesn’t stop at Pinot Noir. From crisp Chardonnay to rich Shiraz and sparkling Cap Classique, Lord’s offers a variety of wines that entice every palate. Each sip carries the essence of the McGregor Valley’s natural beauty and the farm’s unwavering dedication to quality.
What makes Lord’s Wines even more delightful is the warm hospitality and relaxed charm it offers visitors. Lord’s Wines boasts a scenic tasting room with panoramic views of the valley, where guests can unwind while tasting exceptional wines.
