For groups of 12 to 25 guests, a set menu is available. In line with our farm philosophy, our menu is always seasonal and guided by what's currently available from the garden. Expect creatively styled platters served family-style, so everyone can help themselves. Our group menu always boasts freshly baked bread from our traditional wood-fired oven, showstopping salads and hearty mains served with all the trimmings. A delightful dessert of farm-made favourites seals the deal.
A 50% deposit secures your reservation. Should you wish to bring an even larger group, we have private function venues available.

A tale as old as time, told in vivid sensory detail in our wine museum, The Story of Wine. The space is a celebration of man's ingenuity and the earth's generosity, and the cultural events that have shaped our collective winemaking and wine drinking heritage.
It details the origins, cultivation and culture behind mankind's love affair with wine, while encouraging a contemporary narrative of its age-old traditions and social gravitas.
Visit the museum at the entrance to our Tasting Room, to your right. The self-guided tour is free to experience and open daily.

Maximum 6 guests!
The walking tour starts with a visit to our balsamic vinegar cellar, where guests will gain insight into the traditional methods and production processes used to create our DOP-style vinegar, and taste both our three-year-old and twelve-year-old balsamic vinegars.
This is followed by a behind-the-scenes look at how Babylonstoren’s table olives are made in our olive production plant and sample the varieties on offer. After the tasting, the process of transforming olives into golden olive oil in our cold press process is explained in the olive press. Finally, it’s time to taste our olive oils. Guests can create their own 100ml blend of the different oils to take home as a small keepsake.
Payment required to secure booking.
