Surrounded on three sides by the great Winterhoek Mountains, the vineyards of the Tulbagh district grow alongside orchards and fields of wheat.
Soils in the valley are extremely variable, from sandy soils on the valley floor to very stony soils on the mountain slopes. Summer temperatures are warm, although mountainous terrain creates numerous different micro-climates which can be used to great advantage.
