A winery with a twist


A winery was recently recommended to visit for tastings and possibly sharing a bottle of wine or two with friends.....

Consequently, the following week whilst reading a local home and interiors magazine, as article appeared before me - wonderful images of an 1800's farm and winery that had been renovated tastefully with a modern red and white theme and I realised that this was the winery that had been recommended.

So whilst we had some visitors here from Australia and England, we decided that this one was going to be included on our winery tour on the Sunday.......

It was our last stop on our tour and it turned out to be the perfect way to end the day!

We started with a tasting (R40 per person) which included 6 wines.

Even though it was nearing the end of the day, the friendly staff were more than happy for us to order a few cheese plates, enjoy a bottle of wine and watch the sun go down.

I can definitely recommend the Sauvignon Blanc 2008 - very light and some might say, too easy to drink ;)
