Great service and the tasting was so interesting. Every single different honey is astonishing how close it taste to the flavor coupled!
2. Raka Wine
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 67 reviews
The Raka brand was named after Piet Dreyer's black fishing vessel. Piet's first love has always been the sea. For some 36 years he braved the storms and challenges of the coast, ever in search of the best catch. It is with this same passion that the Dreyer family now pursue the art of wine making. With the rich blessing of earth and elements, the help of a dedicated workforce, the enthusiasm of winemaker Josef Dreyer and the advantages of a modern gravity flow cellar, Piet Dreyer produces his award-winning Raka wines.

We picked up this winery through trip advisor and we visited not to be disappointed! The tasting was done professionally and their Red Wine Collection is excellent! We would recommend them highly!

Wine tasting in a beautiful renovated barn really sets the scene. Elizabeth was friendly and knowledgeable making the experience memorable. There was a small tasting fee but we certainly didn't pay R400 for the tasting - sorry can’t remember exact price!

As the first wine and brewing estate in the southern hemisphere, we run a small but growing micro brewery, water bottling plant, winery and vineyard situated in the Western Cape of South Africa. Come and enjoy our delicious food and freshly brewed beer, and visit our vineyard and winery where we produce Walker Bay wines.

Stanford is a short drive from Hermanus and about 2 hours from Cape Town. It is a historic and friendly village. Close by (on the road to Caledon) is the Birkenhead Estate. This is advertised as a wedding venue and you will soon see why. After entering the Brewery you will be blown away by the sensational vista of a valley and rolling green hills that unfold in front of you. There is a dam nearby. This area is really great for photographs. The Estate has a play area for kids As a craft beer brewery you are in for a treat. We enjoyed the Honey Blonde Wheat Ale (500ml) and Pot Belly Pilsener. Good beer comes in twos (and more if you want it). They have a good pub food menu. We enjoyed the craft beer pie, calamari and hake with malva pudding as dessert. This made for a lazy, conversational and relaxing afternoon. This is definitely a favourite and a bucket list visit.
