Guide & Vehicle Rental

Activity Description

Our first stop is at Middlevlei estate, where we get to taste straight from the barrel and get to understand how a cellar works. After that, we sit down and get to sample a traditional lunch which is a braai(BBQ) and taste wine during lunch.

Next up is chocolate and wine pairing. On a beautiful small and cosy boutique wine estate where we have taken their wines and teamed up with a local chocolatier to give you a lovely experience. Lovane is one of the smallest wine estates in Stellenboch, only producing 15000 bottles a year.

Last stop on our half-day tour, is to our Lovely Miter’s edge, where we can meet and greet a winemaker when available. This stop is all about cheese and wine, with breathtaking views and off the beaten track feel, it’s a perfect way to finish the day. From there it is a 45 minute drive back home.
