Our unforgettable estate experiences are designed to evoke a unique sense of place and stimulate all five of your senses.

WINE DRIVE: The Wine Drive Safari is a unique three-hour trip on our safari-type vehicle, through the 120-hectare Estate on the beautiful slopes of the Helderberg mountain.

The wine tasting will be accompanied by a platter and the breathtaking views. The experience will culminate with a tasting of our iconic blend The Jem.

Bookings are required a week in advance.

WINE WALK: We have designed three different routes at different levels of intensity, which explore both Vineyards and natural Fynbos, ensuring the best possible experience depending on your own capabilities.

The selection of three wines will be accompanied by a light lunch. On your return to the winery, your experience will culminate in our Wine and Chocolate Tasting.

Bookings are required a week in advance.

    We did the Porcupine Wine Walk so only had a light lunch, which was very tasty, but the whole experience was fantastic. Zac was excellent, lots of knowledge and was genuinely interested in the wine estate and passing on information. The wine was also excellent (so I was told as I don’t drink) and the estate was lovely. We were there for a while longer as it was so nice sitting in the sun with the glorious wine, chocolate and wine ordering. Best wine we’ve had in the region and best experience, highly recommend
