Idiom wines is based in the heart of the Helderberg range. This southernmost part of the Stellenbosch wine region provides the backdrop and the perfect climatic conditions for the incredible range of wines. A celebration of terroir, unusual varietals and masterful blends, Idiom is so-called because it is home to the Cape expression of so many European classics. The Cape Idiom, if you will.

The Idiom Restaurant and Wine Tasting Centre offers world-class and informative tasting experiences that showcase Idiom’s flagship blends, signature Italian varietal wines and rare limited release 900 Series wines. Explore the ‘Cape Idiom’ of the great wine regions of the world, while taking in architecture, views, and Italian-South African wines. Guests are also able to embark on a virtual journey through the main wine regions of Italy at the Vinotria Italian Wine Library – a display of 250 wines from all over Italy distributed by Bottega Family Wines in South Africa.

    My wine tasting experience at Idiom Wine was absolutely spectacular. From the moment we were received at the entrance, everything felt calm, welcoming, and enjoyable. I chose the pasta pairing, which was simply delightful – each dish complemented the wines perfectly. My daughter had a pizza, and we were pleasantly surprised by how generous the portion was, especially for the price. A special mention goes to Kyle, who was incredibly warm and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the different wines and dishes, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and the relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend a visit to Idiom Wine – it’s a perfect spot for a memorable outing.
