Fanie Malan

Fanie Malan’s deep-rooted dedication to farming and viticulture ensures that the land that nourishes their vines will continue to thrive for generations to come. Committed to sustainability, he embraces eco-friendly farming practices and works to minimise the farm’s carbon footprint, ensuring that every bottle of Allesverloren wine is a step toward a more sustainable future. The son of Danie and Juanita Malan, Fanie stepped into the role of viticulturist in 2019, following in the footsteps of a long-standing tradition
of excellence. With a childhood spent on the farm, Fanie has a deep, personal connection to the land, making him a natural choice to lead the way in cultivating the vineyards. His education in agriculture and winemaking at CPUT Wellington, paired with hands-on experience alongside his father, has only strengthened his ability to match varieties with their ideal terroir. Today, under Fanie’s leadership, Allesverloren continues its legacy of excellence with a focus on growing grapes in harmony with nature. His passion for the land and commitment to quality are evident in every bottle, reflecting both his vision and the farm’s long history of craftsmanship. With a personality as jovial and optimistic as his parents’, Fanie is steering this Swartland landmark toward an even brighter future.

Danielle Malan

The legacy of Allesverloren runs in Daniëlle’s veins. As the latest Malan
generation of several that have directed the farm, she was the ideal choice to be marketing manager. Daniëlle was raised on Allesverloren, the youngest of three children. She studied marketing and was appointed manager of online wine sales in 2020. As with many wine farms, the Covid pandemic dramatically shifted sales online and Danielle found herself in the deep end. Despite the uncharted territory and steep learning curve, she excelled. The ensuing years launched Allesverloren into a new phase with demanding responsibilities and Daniëlle once again rose to the occasion. Key to her success has been a warm, generous and energetic demeanour that has become a Malan trademark. Today, she keeps a firm hand on the tiller, embracing her task as custodian of the stories of Allesverloren.
