    Thank you for a splendid afternoon of wine tasting and dining. Our party of 16 enjoyed everything. The crème Brule was perfect!

    Had an amazing picnic lunch at Rheboksloof over the holiday season. We had a chance to try the regular, vegetarian and kids' picnic boxes and some amazing wine in a beautiful serene setting by the water. The service was attentive, the wine was delicious and the ambiance was incredible - we will definitely visit again! I do think there's room for improvement with the kids' picnic box - which was mostly comprised of packaged snack food. Most kids will also eat cheese, bread and fruit - so including some of those elements from the adult boxes in the kids' box instead of packaged "junk" food would be a significant quality improvement.
