We booked ahead and received a great welcome. They have four wines to taste in this family run vineyard, which is well worth a visit for the views, wine and general experience. Thanks for a great tasting team Luddite!

My wife and I were warmly welcomed by young Theo when we arrived. She took the time to show us around the Deli where all the magic happens. Nadia introduced us to a large variety of mouth-watering frozen meals and even desserts which you can enjoy at home too. We ordered some coffee and headed for the Tasting Room where we started with some lovely Chenin Blanc. Our friendly and accommodating host, Lynn, did a stirling job introducing us to the selection of wines on offer. We ended up ordering some breakfast "snacks" from their "Zest" restaurant to go with the wine. This included a Smoked Salmon Bagel, a Gruyere, Thyme & Onion Confit Tart and then some Buttermilk Pancakes. The wonderfully delicious meals were served promptly and beautifully prepared right there in the comfortable Tasting Room. All things considered, we had a relatively brief but most enjoyable visit to Beaumont Wines! Friendly people and delicious food in a lovely setting. Highly recommended!

We came here to have a bite to eat after our afternoon horse ride. What a good idea to stop. We had a pizza and it was prepared and cooked to perfection. Really enjoyed it!

So glad my daughter had found this on her first trip to South Africa.... Sometimes the places that don’t have much advertisement can be memorable ones (this was one of those places) This amazing spot feels like a well-kept secret. We had the place to ourselves, with a kind and knowledgeable animal trainer who served as our guide. We arrived and greeted by a friendly zebra (Columbia) chilling out in the parking area. We saw the cheetahs do their run then spent some time with them, watched lions lounging in the sun, and had a pleasant and relaxed chat with our guide, who is passionate about the animals. It all felt informal and welcoming but also educational... We never felt rushed, in fact it was just the opposite. All of the animals seem SO happy to be there and they are well taken care of. There’s nothing more satisfying as seeing the trainers love their animals as much as the animals love their trainers. It was obvious the connection between the trainer and the animal was a trust that was undeniable! We will visit again to see their upgraded project in progress .... Wish we could have met Luke “we had heard so much about him from my daughter” Maybe next time....

Beautiful tranquil setting. Makes you want to spend hours there. Tasting went very well. The owner popped by for a chat which was great. I will return for the food. The wine speaks for itself and the olives and olive oil is great. Unfortunately their Madame Lucy MCC is not available for tasting, having tried it before, I left with a few bottles.
