Offered as a fully operational Going Concern, this remarkable estate extends across approximately 127.99 hectares, combining award-winning wine production, premium hospitality, agricultural excellence and lifestyle living within one of the Western Cape's most sought-after wine regions. CAPAIA is far more than an exceptional wine estate—it is an established destination, an internationally recognised wine brand and a business built on decades of passion, craftsmanship and innovation. A Fully Integrated Wine Estate The estate is centred around a thriving viticultural enterprise, with approximately 50.67 hectares of established vineyards producing internationally recognised cultivars including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
