Situated in the beautiful Breede River Valley, between Villiersdorp and Worcester, Eagle’s Cliff specializes in the exporting and marketing of fine South African wines.
Christiaan Groenewald, wine exporter and wine maker, founded the Eagle’s Cliff Wines company in 2000. Wines are bottled under the following labels: Eagle’s Cliff Range, Eagle’s Cliff Reserve range, Dwyka Hills range and the Arendskloof range. These full ranges of red and white wines are available locally and abroad. The company is also a successful exporter of bulk wines to Europe including destinations such as Germany and Switzerland.
Dwyka is a Karoo rock stratum which was laid down during the Ice Age 300 million years ago. Composed of a matrix of mud and 'Dropstones', it created a compact layer know as tillite that has characteristic striations and textures. In Worcester, South Africa, the tillite stratum has undergone vertical movements and weathering has created dramatic 'tombstone' shapes.
