Sitting in a region blessed by superlative vineyards, exquisite Flamingo's and rare orchids, Darling Cellars is located close to the hamlet of Darling on the cool West Coast of South Africa. As a private company and with nearly 1.700ha under vine, winemaker Abe Beukes is now producing wines rivaling the best in the Cape. Flamingo's are a familiar sight in winter on the West Coast of South Africa, before migrating to the tranquil Etosha Pan in Namibia. Our Flamingo Bay range of wines echo the elegance of a wonderous bird in a style which is clean, fresh, fruity and vibrant.
