The result is just fantastic as Julian used the finance to update the Vondeling Farm, with 300 years of wine-making tradition, and create wines that embrace modern techniques with a traditional character.
The site is very picturesque and the farmhouse (see picture) is an original feature, built in 1750.

This is a further indictment of the philosophy of the place as tradition meets modernity to fantastic effect.
