What an amazing experience from the start to the end! From the moment of booking (which was not necessary, but still handled very professional) to the stunning experience, everything was just perfect. The driver for the transfer was very friendly and professional, his driving skills excellent. Upon arrival, there was a warm welcome by the staff and Tino took very good care, attentive and knowledgeable. He first did a cellar tour combined with tasting (their white Pinotage is unique and amazing!), followed by lunch with further wine tasting. The pizza here is just to die for, the setup is cosy indoors and outdoors, a beautiful place to just relax and enjoy! Will definitely be back, highly recommended, thank you!
