al de Vie offers its residents an exceptional winelands lifestyle. With its state-of-the-art security, dazzling scenery and a variety of leisure activities, it’s no wonder that the estate is one of the most sought after addresses in South Africa.
“The guidelines have been carefully designed to establish a timeless and collective architectural identity throughout the estate without inhibiting the individual’s creativity and style.”
French Provencal and Cape Vernacular architecture sets an elegant tone in this luxurious yet laid back development. The Home Owners Association together with the developers and controlling architects ensure that the guidelines are complied with during the design and construction phases. The guidelines have been carefully designed to establish a timeless and collective architectural identity throughout the estate without inhibiting the individual’s creativity and style. The control of these elements is in the interest of the development of Val de Vie and ultimately in that of the homeowners’ investment in their property and the potential growth thereof. The plot owner is free to choose his/her own registered architect and is only subjected to the condition that these written and visual guidelines form the basis of the house design.

THE DEVELOPMENT Val de Vie Estate borders 2 km of the Berg River and stretches over 220 hectares including two farms of 25 hectares each, 5 lakes of 12 hectares and paddocks of 8.5 hectares. The development was designed to ensure that all 550 plots are offered a true country living area with wide open spaces and lush green belts planted with olive trees, vineyards and the indigenous Cape Fynbos.

nlike many other lifestyle estates, Val de Vie embraces a responsible and nurturing socio-environmental ethos. We are immensely proud of our achievements, not only in having transformed the lives of those who previously lived under abject conditions on the original Kliprug Farm, but also in breathing new life into once sterile land that was damaged by intensive fruit farming and clay mining. Some of the initiatives include:
When the development of Val de Vie Estate began on Kliprug Farm in 2006, the first consideration was to address the housing needs of the resident farm labourers. 109 men, women and children were relocated and re-housed in 17 homes around Paarl and Wellington at a cost of over R7, 5 million and for the first time the workers are now also proud homeowners!
“
� A major part of the Berg River Valley falls within the Cape Floral Kingdom, a proclaimed World Heritage Site. One of the first steps was to rescue over 3 000 plants and bulbs including rare and vulnerable flora, which were replanted into a dedicated conservation area.
In line with Val de Vie’s holistic biodiversity programme, Primary invasive alien vegetation was removed in partnership with the government agency, Working for Water, and replaced with indigenous stream-bank vegetation to counter soil erosion and encourage local wildlife. Our ultimate aim is not only to create an aesthetically pleasing and ecologically sound environment for residents to enjoy, but also to attract a flourishing population of local wildlife.
R E S P O N S I B L E WA T E R M A N A G E M E N T Val de Vie has its own boreholes as well as water rights along the Berg River. Responsible water management is implemented at all times. Strict precautions are taken to minimise the environmental impact of the polo fields, and a customised water collection system is in place to prevent seepage of the fertilized drainage.
15
Two demarcated conservation areas have been established on the North side of Val de Vie Estate. The smaller reserve is close to the river and covers an area of roughly 1ha. To protect the delicate and valuable remnant of the original indigenous Berg River vegetation.
Val de Vie is proud to have pioneered the reintroduction of formerly indigenous game into the Berg River Valley. After a joint feasibility study conducted with Cape Nature Conservation in 2010, a fenced 4.3ha natural grazing area was established. The estate now boasts its own herd of indigenous antelope - Springbok, Antidorcas marsupialis as well as Zebra, Kaapse Grysbok (an endangered species) and Bontebok. All additions are made in consultation with Cape Nature Conservation and with their full endorsement.
As part of our environmentally conscious philosophy, Val de Vie encourages residents to recycle as much of their household waste as possible. The estate boasts its own glass and paper recycling banks.
Val de Vie utilises an innovative natural agent to control the fly population. The solution comes in the form of a tiny parasitic wasp (Muscidifurax raptor), whose favoured environment is damp dung-heaps and wet feed, both of which are breeding sites for flies.

F
rom the time when Val de Vie was just a dream and unto this day, the ground on which the estate was established has been truly blessed. Every year there has been growth and with the passing of each season, prosperity. Val de Vie Estate has a corporate culture that recognizes and values the privilege to steward its prosperity and is dedicated to giving back and supporting communities in the valley who are less fortunate. In January 2012 Val de Vie Events established “Heart in a Box�, which serves as a vocal platform to raise awareness of the charities we support.
The Mbekweni Community Sports Centre is run by Hope Through Action (HTA), a non-profit organization established in 2007 that aims to enable young people to break out of the cycles of poverty, ill health, crime, drug abuse and marginalization, and equip them with new opportunities and skills. With over 1500 users weekly in structured sessions, the aim of the project is to get young people off the street and urge them to break out of the cycle of poverty, ill health, crime, drug abuse and social exclusion and motivate them in making healthy life choices. Val de Vie’s involvement started in 2013 when Val de Vie Home Owner and Chairman of Hope Through Action, Philip Green, shared his dream for building another sports centre, similar to the one in Mbekweni, in the township of Groendal just outside Franschhoek. Through strategic alliances and offering support financially and serving as a vocal platform to raise awareness of the need for this project, we aim to see the realization of that dream. Several young men from this community have been employed and given training in hospitality by Val de Vie Events to build and develop their skills for the future.
The Reach for Recovery Programme intends to support and enable patients to make relevant personal decisions and to find the motivation for recovery from breast cancer with an optimal quality of life. Funds raised at our annual Pink Polo Event are donated to this charity.
A portion of all income generated at Val de Vie Events PTY (Ltd) is transferred to the Prochorus Creche Support Programme, which operates Stellenbosch. Under the auspices of Prochorus Community Developments, the prograame supports the people of Kayamandi and surrounding townships in the Western Cape to build a brighter, more prosperous future, bringing hope for both the present and the next generation.
Val de Vie places paramount value on family lifestyle, providing a safe and nurtured environment for the raising of families. Every year Christmas is such a special time where sharing and giving flow beyond the gates of the estate. And so once a year, a willing team of enthusiastic and caring staff as well as residents, volunteer to collect old and new toys to donate to the children at TC Newman Hospital affected by HIV and Aids. 18

al de Vie Estate is recognised for its exceptional wines. Derived from traditional Rhône varietals, our wines are inspired by the acclaimed vintages of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Eleven different Rhône varietals are grown on the estate, creating a true celebration of French heritage and South African terroir.
Val de Vie dates back to the 18th century when the original land was granted in 1783. This was a time when the Paarl-Franschhoek Valley produced the highest volume of wine in South Africa. No surprise, as the French Huguenots who settled there during the second half of the seventeenth century brought with them their skills and passion for winemaking. The climate - with cool South Easters whipping the vineyards, cooling them during hot summers, and the moody North Westerly gales bringing rain in winter - was akin to that of their fatherland. Eleven of the twenty-two varietals, that brought the Rhône’s Châteauneuf-du-Pape area wines worldwide fame, have now also been planted on Val de Vie - turning the estate into a unique South African model of this southern region of France.
21
All vineyard material was carefully selected within a 200 km radius from the estate and promises the most extensive range of Rhône-style wines from South Africa’s own soil. In 2006 Val de Vie Estate broke new ground with the production and bottling of contemporary Rhône-style wines and soon experienced the delight of receiving a Best-in-Class Gold Medal for the 2007 Val de Vie Shiraz at the 2009 International Wine & Spirit Competition. Another Gold was recently won for the 1783 blend at the 2011 International Wine & Spirit Competition.
The collection includes white wines from Clairette Blanche, Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Roussanne and Ugni Blanc, while reds are made from Petite Syrah, Cinsaut, Carignan, Grenache Noir, Mourvedre and Shiraz. These wines are the crowning glory for one of South Africa’s premier lifestyle estates. Its stately architecture with French and Classical influences, world-class vineyards, tranquil tree-lined ambience and polo fields do justice to a rich heritage in the Valley of the Huguenots. Predictably it has become the estate of choice for those who appreciate country life at its best. We also have an alternative label, the Polo Club. Although our second label is lower in price, it is by no means lower in quality. This range offers an extended range of premium class wines for added variety at a very reasonable price. The focus is rather on everyday consumption, with the likes of Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc being produced.
Val de Vie’s winemaker, Harold Versfeld, has a true love for his craft. Having grown up on a wine farm, Harold became interested in winemaking from an early age. After studying viticulture, he worked at several estates in Australia and the Napa Valley. Today he has been instrumental in earning Val de Vie numerous awards at international wine shows. In his own words, the ideal wine features,
“Balance, elegance, nothing too subtle, nothing too over-powering, being unique.” When asked about the South African wine industry in general, Harold is very enthusiastic. “We are definitely up there, we don’t have to stand back for any other country. We have such a great diversity, we should identify each region as a niche, specializing in certain varietals and styles. With young winemakers travelling the world and picking up tips and learning a great deal more, I think we have a great future in the international market.”
The cellar is part of the original Manor House that was built on the farm in 1825. It has been adapted and equipped with state-of-the art equipment.

ramed by the serene mountains and vineyards of the famous Paarl-Franschhoek valley, Val de Vie is one of the most spectacular polo estates in the world. Our passion for the sport has transformed the estate into an unrivalled polo destination. Apart from hosting international tournaments and high society events such as the Veuve Clicquot Polo Masters, the Polo Club members play weekly polo matches in season.

Val de Vie offers two of the finest, most luxurious grounds in the country, completed to Hurlingham International Championship Standards. Both grounds are boarded and have ample seating for spectators, either on the informal banks - ideal for a casual picnic - or on the elevated terraces at the Polo Pavilion - where players and spectators can mingle, enjoy an easy lunch, aperitif or savour victory whilst sampling some of the estate’s finest.
