10 June 2022

Winter is the time for comfort, good food, & great wines!

Winter is finally here and there’s no better place to spend it than in the picturesque Franschhoek Valley. Sip on some spectacular red wines next to our fireplace with your closest friends and enjoy pairings with Belgian chocolate or artisan cheese, while soaking up the ambiance and tranquillity of our snow-capped mountains.


Wine down with our sommeliers this winter!

On 3 June we toast to our exceptional wine experts on International Sommelier Day. A Sommelier: pronounced suh-mel-yay, is a professional knowledgeable wine steward who works at fine dining establishments. Let them teach you to unlock the full beauty of our wines through pairings and a guided tasting, with a lesson about proper wine storage.
