Warwick is a farm of many 'firsts' !
It was only in 1964 that the Ratcliffe Family arrived in the Stellenbosch wine scene, and it took winemaker Norma Ratcliffe, alongside her husband Stan, twenty years before they released their first wine, La Femme Bleu Cabernet Sauvignon. This was followed soon after by the first ever ‘Cape Blend’ in the world, The Three Cape Ladies, winning multiple international wine awards, and appeared on some of the planet’s most prestigious wine lists, and even became a wine of choice for James Bond in one of his many adventures.
In 2018, the farm was bought by its current owners who are continuing the traditions started by the Ratcliffes, with CEO Christiane von Arnim carrying the 'baton' for all career women out there.
