Distilling range
Boplaas’s distilling heritage began with the making of fine potstill brandy and dates to 1880. After the repeal of distilling licenses in the early 1920’s, Boplaas’s copper potstill lay dormant for almost 70 years until it was fired up again in 1989.
In addition to Boplaas’s renowned brandies, the family distillery began to produce gin and whisky in recent years on a new still nicknamed The Falcon.

Cape Ports
Due to climate conditions, pure blind luck, (Oupa Danie unknowingly planning Tinta Barocca), extensive visit to Portugal and single-minded determination to craft the best, Boplaas has built a reputation for the finest ‘Port’ styled fortifieds from traditional Portuguese varietals in the Cape.
MUSCAT COLLECTION
The Klein Karoo has long been known for the quality of its Muscats – Muscat de Frontignan and Muscat d’Alexandria . The very first wines crafted by the Nels of Boplaas in the mid-19th century were quite possible fortifieds Muscats and today we continue this heritage by crafting a range of Muscats from exceptional old vines.
