Le Bonheur has a rich winemaking history dating back to the late 1700s. The estate’s spirit of a journey to happiness dates back to an era when the estate was a trading post for French Huguenots travelling between Cape Town and Franschhoek. The property soon gained a reputation as a lush place of solace and social gathering, which led to the Estate’s name: Le Bonheur, meaning happiness. Today Le Bonheur brings the name it was given by the French settlers to life, by contributing to everyday happiness through simple moments of sharing and enjoying great wines.
