The Zorgvliet Portfolio was established in 2002 when businessman Mac van der Merwe, bought the Zorgvliet Wine Estate in the heart of the Cape wine land region near Stellenbosch. The historic farm with its stately manor, the Herenhuis, now completely restored to a restaurant, dates back to 1692 and is located in the legendary Banghoek Valley.
The luxurious Riviera on Vaal Hotel joined the ranks of the Zorgvliet Portfolio at the end of 2003, adding more plush accommodation to the Zorgvliet Portfolio. The Riviera Country Club was added in May 2005 offering excellent golfing for South African and International golfers next to the majestic Vaal River at Vereeniging.
The Zorgvliet Portfolio now also own the majority shares in the Garden Route hotel, King George, known for its old fashioned service and classical Victorian styled accommodation.
