Cape Point Vineyards is uniquely located in Noordhoek on the Cape Peninsula, where it is set majestically against the slopes of the famous Chapman’s Peak mountain range and overlooks the nearby Atlantic Ocean – a mere 1,2km’s away.
Cool sea breezes along with ancient mountain soils make for a late growing season that results in a world class Sauvignon Blanc, with mineral tones and great complexity.
THE RESTAURANT
It is almost impossible to find a restaurant with a better view. While guests take it all in from the deck their kids can run free throughout the expansive lawns. That’s not to say that this is all that makes this restaurant great. Their food is a draw card in itself. Executive chef Jonathan Gargan (formerly of One&Only Cape Town) oversees a seasonally driven à la carte menu offering a range of fresh seafood and game dishes. And of course the food is accompanied by an extensive wine list that includes Cape Point Vineyards’ own range.
WINE TASTING
Situated in the restaurant, the tasting room provides an opportunity to sample the Sauvignon Blancs’ for which these vineyards are renowned. The unique location, where ocean winds cool the grapes, produces a vintage with special flavours that are recognised around the world.
The tasting experience offers five vintages, including the estate’s flagship wine, the Isliedh (named after owner Sybrand van der Spuy’s first grandchild), which currently holds the Old Mutual Trophy for the best white blend in South Africa, and a five-star rating from Platter’s Wine Guide.
PICNICS
Sources such as Getaway Magazine, The Inside Guide, Cape Town Magazine and Eat Out, regularly refer to Cape Point Vineyards as one of the best Vineyard Picnic experiences in and around Cape Town. Spend an afternoon enjoying a relaxed picnic accompanied by their magnificent wines and breath-taking views. The picnic set up includes picnic blankets and prism shaped pillows for your comfort.
FUNCTIONS
They also offer exclusive use function packages. This is possibly the most idyllic location to have your event in the Cape, if not the world.
Cape Point Vineyards is truly a special place and we are extremely proud to call them one of our long standing clients. We wish the team every further success ahead!
