Kay & Monty Vineyards is a boutique wine farm run by a small, passionate team. The region is known for its cool-climate wines and is ideal for growing varietals like Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir; all grapes you will find in our vineyards.
“At Kay & Monty Vineyards, the intention is to keep the production small in order to deliver unique, hand-crafted and appealing new flavours.”
Once a rambling protea farm and dairy, Kay & Monty Vineyards is now a charming 220-hectare wine farm, polo estate and wedding venue. The land was purchased in 2004 by Chick Legh, who planted the first vines five years later – only the second property in the region to do so – producing its first vintage in 2012. The 2013 Sauvignon Blanc went on to win gold at the prestigious Old Mutual Wine Show; the first of many awards to come.
Chick’s legacy is honoured by farm manager Jennifer Woods, winemaker Anton Smal, and their small team, who work closely together to craft interesting, innovative wines that Chick would have loved. Remarkably easy-drinking, our range – a Sauvignon Blanc, a rosé, a red blend and an MCC – is the perfect pairing to a long, sun-drenched lunch on the deck in sight of Chick’s beloved polo ponies in the company of family and friends.
“Kay & Monty Vineyards is a lasting tribute to my grandparents. On balmy summer evenings, Kay was likely to turn to Monty and conspiratorially suggest a chilled glass of Champu.”
