About Benguela Cove

Cool climate wines from the shores of the lagoon

Benguela Cove is a prestigious wine estate on the shores of the Walker Bay lagoon in South Africa's Western Cape. Founded by Penny Streeter OBE, one of the most accomplished entrepreneurs in South Africa, the estate has been transformed since 2013 through her sheer determination and vision. At one time living in a homeless refuge with three children, Penny built a business empire that includes Benguela Cove — a testament to hard work and tenacity. The estate's identity is deeply connected to the Streeter family's journey between South Africa and England. A swallow — symbolising migration — represents this transatlantic connection and the family's commitment to blending cultures, values and traditions across both nations. Proudly boasting some of the most sought-after terroirs in the Western Cape overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Benguela Cove has unique and beautiful stories to tell. Brought to life on the shores of the lagoon, cool maritime winds caress the vines, resulting in a cooler median daytime temperature that allows for slow ripening and preserves the gentle characteristics of these cool-climate wines. Proudly carrying the stamp of Wine of Origin Walker Bay, all wines are crafted with minimal intervention by award-winning cellar master Johann Fourie, producing wines celebrated for their exceptional quality and distinctive character.
