Award-winning wine paired with innovative food is what youll find at our tasting room on the banks of the Spier dam. Relax in the airy lounge area, and enjoy stunning views of the Helderberg mountains, or take your glass outside onto the sunny patio and gaze across the rolling lawns.

For wine tasting, settle in at the parquet tables and admire the iconic Heath Nash chandelier — made from 334 recycled Spier wine bottles and weighing 370kgs — which hangs above the tasting counter.

You can either enjoy a set wine tasting (see the list below), with or without a food pairing, or order whatever you like with an olive, cheese or cured meat board.

Tastings include:

Spier Tasting (R40 pp): Choose three wines from our Signature range and one from each of the two premium wine ranges, 21 Gables and Creative Block.

Chocolate and wine tasting (R70 pp): Inspired by our Spier Signature Methode Cap Classique and our Spier Creative Block blends, the chocolatier has carefully crafted chocolates that complement and unlock nuanced flavours in each of our liquid treasures.

Frans K Smit Tasting (R90 pp): The two premium wine ranges plus Spiers flagship wine, Frans K Smit.

Childrens Grape Juice Tasting (R40 pp): This tasting is the ideal way to keep the youngsters busy with a fun lucky packet and a tasting of three different grape juices and an educational activity sheet highlighting the role insects play in our vineyards.

Seasonal Spring Tasting (R95 pp): This special tasting includes summer inspired food and wine pairings, and is available from the Spier Tasting Room for R95 per person, until 15 November.

Food platters to pair with the tastings are also be available for sale. For groups of eight or more, a reservation is required. Larger groups can be accommodated in the tasting room at the Cow House. Please ensure that bookings are made and confirmed at least 48 hours in advance.

    This house is great. The sommelier have us a brilliant lesson in organic wines. He was full of humour and knew everything about the wine. Afterwards we had a good lunch in Vadas on the premisse.
