Based in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley near the seaside town of Hermanus, it is a family affair at Newton Johnson. Started by Cape Wine Master, Dave and his wife, Felicity, sons Bevan and Gordon took over the reins in the mid-2000s, joined today by Gordon's wife Nadia. Today Newton Johnson is world-famous for their fine Chardonnays and Pinot Noir. Along with multiple accolades, the Pinot Noir has one of the longest consecutive Platter 5 Stars in history.

Critics Ratings
'Maintains uniquely remarkable record of five star ratings - It's never failed. Masterly 2015 blend transcends the three sites in triumph. Pure fruit integrated with succulent acidity, understated tannins & sensitive oaking in an elegant composition. Powerful yet demure.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 5*
'A combination of Windansea (50%), Mrs M (30%) and Block 6 (20%), this is always more than the sum of its parts, a brilliant expression of the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Floral, complex and well balanced, with some clover spice from 20% whole bunches, sweet red berry fruit and a long, savoury, complex finish. Drink: 2016-21' - Tim Atkin SA Wine Report 2016, 96/100
