Gerakaris Family Wines was founded in 2009 by Kath Gerakaris. Our boutique winery in the heart of Craighall Park, Jozi, produces wines from grapes sourced from a single farm in the Swartland, Western Cape. Five wines are made by winemaker Kath Gerakaris. Two Chenin blancs and three Syrahs.

Wine tastings are R120 person. We also serve a cheese board designed to match our wines, show casing four South African cheese producers, and bowls of Cape Olives. We have a small garden and we like it this way because we can chat to everyone about what we do… however it does mean weekends get busy and you need to make a booking ahead of time.

Our wine tastings take from half an hour to an hour and a half depending on the size of your group. We therefore reserve your table for a maximum of 2 hours.

    The cheese platters lacked generosity. The wine was very good with interesting information shared by the server. Great to be able to do a wine tasting in Johannesburg.

    The service was bit on the slow side, the breaks between each tasting was very long, this was very annoying. We were told that the cheese board was out of stock and we opted for their wagyu biltong and olives, this was excellent for the pairing. The wine was lovely.

    Gerakaris Wines is in a great location. We felt like we were on a country vineyard in the back garden. The wine and cheese board were excellent. The only pity was that the tasting took us past the two hours. Ideally we would have completed the tasting earlier then enjoyed a bottle of our favourite wine.

    What a pleasant surprise. Not only the wine tasting but the quality of wine. Nice to have a boutique winery on your doorstep in Gauteng. Will definitely go back again
