Taste, Learn & Discover at Nederburg’s The Manor
Come to The Manor restaurant at Nederburg in Paarl, and be enticed by fragrances of cinnamon, star anise, cardamom, fresh ginger, rooibos, buchu and roasted nuts. Or wafts of real classics like home-baked bread just out of the oven, toasted coriander seed, ripe tomato, basil, caramelised onion, pickled vegetables, and chips on the fry. In other words, an inviting amalgam of Eastern, Mediterranean, and local aromas to suit a whole lot of palates.
To enter the tranquillity of the thatched-roofed, white-washed, H-shaped manor house, dating to 1800, is to experience a distillation of life lived over 200 years ago. Yet, the tastes on offer are contemporary, devised to complement Nederburg’s extensive range of award-winning wines.
Generous picnics for relaxed enjoyment in the sprawling garden are on offer, as are delicious breakfasts, lunches and mouth-watering cheese and charcuterie platters. Many à la carte menu items are imaginative updates on long-time favourites.
The gorgeous bar serves up award-winning wines, innovative cocktails (including non-alcoholic options), as well as delicious coffees.
Various wine tasting options are available to help you discover Nederburg’s fine wines. The Manor Tasting includes five wines (the selection changes weekly), the Seriously Cheesy pairing comprises five wines paired with five artisanal cheeses, and The Brew Tasting offers you the chance to enjoy various coffee blends with different wines. Then there’s the popular Five Senses Wine & Food Experience, devised to indulge your senses and challenge your perception of flavour.
The Manor’s team understands that children need fun activities of their own when their parents visit for wine-tasting. So apart from the milk and cookie pairings, they offer cupcake decoration workshops, picnic boxes with a delicious collection of snacks you’d be happy to see them eating and drinking. And for birthday parties for six or more, they offer party surprise boxes plus a cupcake decoration workshop. There’s also Jenga and a range of lawn games, jungle gyms and a zip-line, tree house, swings and more.
Get in touch with the team to make your reservation. Pre-booking is essential in most instances.

As day gives way to evening in the Paarl winelands, Nederburg invites guests to experience the bountiful excitement of the season with Harvest at Dusk, a celebration of the 2026 vintage taking place on Saturday, 28 February at the historic wine farm.
The evening opens with a Winelands welcome. Guests are received with canapés and a taste of freshly fermenting grape must, offering an immediate and evocative connection to the season, alongside the opportunity to engage with the winemakers shaping Nederburg’s wines.
From here, the experience moves into the vineyards. A tractor journey carries guests into the vines, where they are invited to hand-pick grapes as the last light of summer settles across the landscape. This rare, tactile moment offers an authentic insight into the origins of the vintage and the quiet precision behind each bottle.
Returning to the sprawling lawns of the Manor House, heritage and tradition come into focus. Guests may take part in grape stomping, a refined yet playful homage to the earliest expressions of winemaking.
As dusk deepens, a fire-inspired, three-course dinner is served, celebrating elemental cooking and seasonal flavour. The menu features Karoo lamb staanrib with garlic and rosemary, BBQ glazed pork belly lollipops with burnt apple purée, coal-roasted butternut with pumpkin seeds and curry purée, and grilled tomato and fior di latte caprese with basil pesto and olive oil. Each course is paired with one of Nederburg’s award-winning wines.
The evening concludes beneath the stars, where music and conversation linger, and guests are invited to enjoy the rare luxury of time, space and atmosphere among the vineyards.
Harvest at Dusk is a refined and deeply immersive expression of Nederburg, honouring the land, the season and the craftsmanship at the heart of every vintage.

As the long summer days begin to soften into golden evenings, Nederburg invites you to linger a little longer and experience something truly special — our new “Under the Stars” evening picnics. This December, on three unforgettable nights, the farm will open its lawns after sunset for a series of relaxed, music-filled evenings that capture the easy magic of a South African summer.
Picture it: the sun dipping behind the mountains, soft music in the background, laughter carrying through the warm air. You’re stretched out on a blanket beneath the trees, a glass of Nederburg wine in hand, the scent of summer herbs mingling with freshly cut grass. It’s laid-back, beautiful, and unmistakably Nederburg — where hospitality and heart meet under the night sky.
Each picnic basket is thoughtfully curated to showcase local, seasonal flavours — a true taste of the Cape Winelands. Expect a feast that begins with local cheeses, marinated olives, and seasonal fruit, paired with house-made onion marmalade and crisp lavash. Enjoy artisanal bread with whipped butter, smoked trout pâté, and grilled free-range chicken in a velvety coronation sauce with almonds and apricots. Rustic baby potato salad, pickled beetroot with creamy feta, and a fresh garden salad round off the savoury selection. To finish, indulge in classic South African milk tart and peppermint crisp tart, both as nostalgic as they are delicious.
The experience is open to everyone — couples looking for a romantic night out, families wanting to make the most of the holidays, and friends simply seeking a beautiful evening together. The expansive lawns provide plenty of space for kids to play, and well-behaved dogs on leashes are welcome too. Bring your own blanket or low chairs, find your spot beneath the stars, and let the evening unfold.
Each Under the Stars event features live local music to set the tone:
Newton & Co on 13 December
Johan van der Merwe on 20 December
Juan Casey on 27 December
