Freedom Hill - It was in 1991 that Francois Klomp, a civil engineer by profession, and his wife Adila, fell in love with and purchased this beautiful 82-hectare farm situated on the slopes of the Wemmershoek Mountain in the Paarl Wine of Origin Region. They named it "Klompzicht", and combining their talents with those of a small, inspired team under wine maker Francois Naude, set out to develop it into what has become a model, boutique estate. Freedom Hill wines are produced on this historic farm. The prestigious range derives its name from the fact that the vineyards overlook the legendary Victor Verster Prison (now Drakenstein Prison), where Nelson Mandela took his first steps to freedom - thus heralding a bright new era for our country. Today, each wine in this range is a joyous tribute to liberty.
