OUR COLLECTIONS
Not every bottle needs finishing in one sitting. The Van Hunks Sparkling Stopper seals your bottle to help keep the bubbles in and the fizz fresh for your next glass, keeping your wine sparkling for 3 to 5 days in the fridge.
Press it down and clip the wings over the bottle neck, then release them to open. It’s designed for standard sparkling wine, Champagne and Cap Classique bottles, with sturdy metal clamps in a white finish and the Van Hunks emblem on top.
A thoughtful add on to any bottle, so the fizz can last beyond the first pour.
BUILT BY RULE BREAKERS. BACKED BY 12 GENERATIONS.
Why should spirits have all the fun?
Van Hunks began with that question. Wine was playing it safe while the spirits world got all the personality, so we went looking for the opposite of ordinary and bottled it.
After a decade with Don Papa Rum, co-founder Tom Gamborg knew exactly what sparkling wine was missing. Energy. Personality. Something honest in the glass. He partnered with Matthew Krone, a 12th generation Stellenbosch winemaker, and brought that same craft and storytelling to premium bubbles.
WORKING WITH THE LAND, NOT AGAINST IT.
Balancing what we grow with what we protect shapes every decision we make, starting with the farm we chose to partner with.
- Zero pesticides: nothing sprayed, nothing hidden.
- Water wise: every drop earns its place.
- Soil first farming: the land sets the terms.
- Hand harvested: picked by hand, grown close to home.
WE ENJOY MISCHIEF. WE LOVE THE PLANET MORE.
Van Hunks is a certified B Corporation. Official recognition for what we were doing anyway: premium sparkling wine made with sustainable, pesticide free, water wise practices.
B Corp holds us to serious standards on social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. Great bubbles are the baseline. A business that is good the whole way through is the point.
BAKING THE PEOPLE AROUND US.
From our home at The Old Biscuit Mill we run donation drives every other month for a rotating list of Cape Town NPOs. We also back three organisations whose work speaks for itself.
- The Pebbles Project: supporting children and families across Winelands communities.
- Greenpop: planting trees, turning under resourced schools into green spaces, and getting communities into the soil.
- The MENstruation Foundation: ending period poverty, one pad dispenser at a time.
Good taste. Their choice.
Give them something worth celebrating with a Van Hunks Gift Card.
SHOP GIFT CARDSI’ve tried so many non-alcoholic bubbles, and honestly, nothing comes close to Van Hunks. The non-alc Rosé is my absolute favourite, although I love alternating with the Chenin when I’m in the mood for something different. What I love most is that it gives you the same luxurious, celebratory feeling as MCC, crisp, delicious and full of flavour — without feeling like you’re compromising. And the bubbles actually last.
Absolutely loving it, my family and friends reckon it needs a warning label to say that it sparks some crazy creative inventions and solutions to life challenges ie: using sheep dogs to herd Springboks on Golf courses instead of darting 🤭 they blame van hunks , I don’t as I teach for the bottle next time too
Definitely the best non-alcoholic bubbles I’ve tasted! Ordered 2 bottles and went back and ordered 2 cases. It’s dry and tastes really good. I’ve got my adult daughter ordering van Hunks now.
I bought a bottle to include in the gift for my wife to be. The gift will be delivered on the morning of our wedding. Something blue and special.
I recently tried the Van Hunks Drinks Brut Sparkling Wine and was blown away by its crisp, refreshing, and fruity profile. The blend of 30% Pinot Noir and 70% Chardonnay creates a perfect harmony. It's now my top choice for celebrations!
