Meerlust Wine Estate

This 18th Century Vineyard has been in the Myburgh family since 1756 and is recognized the world over for its award-winning wines. Only 5 Km from the ocean with its historical Cape Dutch architecture homestead and outbuildings, we take a step back in time in their tasting room filled with history and stories to taste their famous "Rubicon" Bordeaux blend among other varietals of red wine. Meerlust was the first vineyard in South Africa to produce a Bordeaux Blend in South Africa. Because of its unique position close to the ocean, cool sea breezes and evening mists allow for the production of wines with complexity and full concentrated flavours

Private wine tour option is Worth It

Exceptional wineries near Capetown, South Africa! 3 really great wineries, sommeliers, food, etc. lunch on your own but lots of selections, we really! enjoyed our day. Our driver was super knowledgeable about the region and the wine and she was fun to hang out with the entire day. I could write more but I drank really good wine all day starting at 10:30 am!

Big Reds, Subtle Whites, and Eye-Popping Scenery. Wine at its Best.

Totally professional from pre-tour communication to every facet of the experience itself. Willem had nearly encyclopedic knowledge of the South African (and particularly the Stellenbosch region) wine industry. Every detail was meticulously planned and executed. This is a tour for people who truly want to soak up all the sights, sounds, smells and particularly tastes of wines from great wine producers...in settings that can only be described as stunning. I consider myself a wine geek, and thi...read more

Hi Rocky and Ginny, Thank you for a great review, it is always satisfying when you exceed people's expectations and the Winelands certainly do that. South Africa is producing world-class wines and we know where to go to find them!:) Safe travels Regards Willem

Fully enjoyed big red wines

We visited Morgenster, Vergelegen, Rust En Vrede, Stark Conde and nice restaurant for lunch. Fully satisfied as I could enjoy tasting at my own pace and every wines I tasted were really fantastic. Highly recommend for South African "big" red wine lovers.

Response from ViatorMarch 09, 2020

Hi Toshio, Thank you for your review. We are really fortunate to have great examples of all the famous red wine varietals to taste and we know where to find them ! With over 160 vineyards to choose from in Stellenbosch alone its best to organize a tour with a company that has been around for over fifteen years ...that's us :) Regards Willem

A Wine-Lover's Dream Tour

If you love wine, you have probably realized that most of the best wines come from smaller wineries. The challenge is to find those wineries and get inside for a tasting of their best wines. Your problem is solved. My wife and I took this private tour in May 2019, and found ourselves escorted by a level four sommelier to his favorite wineries in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. He is not always be the driver, but he has curated the list of wineries to include his favorites, and he is educating ...read more

Hi Peter and Mary, Thank you for your review. Stephen has excelled in our company and with his Sommelier qualification and knowledge of the wine region is able to curate the best experience for your wine palate. Knowing where the gems are to be found off the beaten track is our forte ! Just to add the tour that you took the previous day was not with our company. Regards Willem
