Virgin Wines becomes the first major retailer to launch Mont Rochelle wines in the UK

Part of Sir Richard Branson’s award-winning Virgin Limited Edition portfolio of unique retreats, Mont Rochelle combines rich heritage with exceptional terroir and modern craftsmanship. Nestled at the foot of the Klein Dassenberg Mountains, the estate cultivates varieties of Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

Under the guidance of award-winning Cellar Master Michael Langenhoven — backed by experience across top global regions and a successful track record at Boschendal, La Motte, Sancerre, and Dry Creek – Mont Rochelle produces a thoughtfully tiered portfolio. The estate is also deeply rooted in sustainability, responsibly managing its water, energy, and supply chain, and supporting local communities.

As a champion of quality, innovation, and exploration, Virgin Wines is proud to be the first major UK stockist of Mont Rochelle premium wines. The collection is now available to happy Virgin Wines’ customers across the UK.

“We’re thrilled to introduce Mont Rochelle to the wider UK audience through our platform”, says Dave Roberts, Senior Buyer at Virgin Wines. “These are beautifully crafted wines that align with our ethos — premium quality, standout provenance and value.”

Elizma Stone, Estate Manager for Mont Rochelle Hotel & Vineyard says: “Sharing our elegant, finely crafted wines with UK consumers is a dream come true. Each bottle is a reflection of our Cellar Master’s true passion and dedication, portraying elegance and finesse- and Virgin Wines offers the perfect platform.”
