Having tasted Brampton wine earlier on our trip, we made a beeline here for lunch on our arrival in town. The service is excellent, and very friendly. The food was that good, we came back again for lunch the next day. The highlight was the wine - perfectly chilled sauvignon blanc. And all at astounding value - the best value lunch we had on our whole trip. Majorly recommended!

This is a farm where the wine truly does speak for itself. Made with heart and passion on a boutique estate that prides itself on the art. A small cafe is available with limited trading hours and be sure to visit the website for some accommodation options. This is a yearly stop when we are in The Winelands as it remains my husband’s all time favourite. With good reason - whoever we take always become fans of Camberley wines.

We didn’t book ahead and just turned up. We received a great welcome and tasting with Ramsay. The tasting costs R60 pp, to taste 6 of their 11 wines and is informative. If you’re passing on the way to Stellenbosch, definitely worth a visit.
