Old church converted into wine tasting with art, character incredible views

Venue is an old building with lots of character! Large windows provide a lot of light the view from the balcony is stunning! Wine tasting is great definitely recommend!

Beautiful tasting room and excellent service. Worth a visit when on The Hemel en Aarde Road.

We popped in quickly for the tasting of their four wines. Enjoying the drive to get to the venue was a plus. Gave a sense of the farm and its scope. We were quickly welcomed and seated. Lionel gave us the usual script and left us to taste the wines. Only once we asked a few questions, were we given a rich answer with interesting information about the area. Great quick stop.

We only had such a wonderful experience here. We drove up this morning at 11:30 a.m. (actually looking for a coffee before the wine and I stopped the car twice on the way to the Wine Lounge. The views are from this world. The small chapel style wine lounge sits proudly on a hill surrounded by vineyards and rolling mountains. The building is stunning, with a bell that randomly sounds: . When we arrived Lionel, the Wine Lounge Manager came to us to open only for us! We went in and were blown away from the interior of the lounge. It is open to the views, decorated with amazing art and the furniture is an eclectic mix and match that creates a secret glamour. When we sat, we were let by the brilliant Lionel directly into a delicious tasting of their 4 wines, and Lionel continued to entertain us with his good humor and a liner. What an extraordinary space and doggo friendly!! Can't wait to bring more friends.
