Owner's description

The Stellenbosch Reserve Tasting Room & Restaurant is perched on the slopes of the Helderberg, at a slightly higher elevation than its neighbour, Rust en Vrede. This elevated location provides breathtaking views of the surrounding vineyards and mountains, creating an idyllic backdrop for wine tastings and meals. The space itself, nestled next to the cellar, blends rustic charm with modern elegance. A flagstone patio shaded by trees invites guests to enjoy the tranquil setting with a glass of wine in hand, surrounded by the peaceful ambiance of the winelands. ⁠

At Stellenbosch Reserve, we are committed to offering a quintessential food and wine experience. Our Tasting Room showcases the full range of Stellenbosch Reserve wines, giving guests the opportunity to explore our classic Stellenbosch varieties. In addition to our own wines, a selection from The Stellenbosch Collection is available for tasting and purchase, including the distinctive labels of Donkiesbaai, Cirrus, and Afrikaans.

The restaurant is equally inviting, offering a menu that merges the sophistication of Mediterranean cuisine with the warmth of home-cooked comfort. The menu is built around two culinary highlights: a wood-fired oven and rotisserie. Signature dishes include thin-crust pizzas and tender, slow-roasted Kalahari lamb, made with locally sourced ingredients that emphasize sustainability.
