The Jansz Family - Founder
Mike & Brigit Jansz were solely responsible for the
establishment of the Jansz Estate in 1995. Having lived in the area
for 29 years have taught us to appreciate the natural and rugged
beauty the landscape offers and the unique quality of fine wines
grown at our door steps.
Operating a Commercial Landscape Company since 1984 and with
over 30 years experience in the Horticulture Industry, the planting
of the vineyard was an extension of what comes naturally and the
passion to produce fine wine by the purest of means.
Our daughters, Lisa and Katie were the inspiration behind the
Naked Range Duet Label and are a constant support and critic of our
activities.
