Wine and History Exploration
The Wine and History Exploration departs at 08h00 for Stellenbosch for wine tastings and shopping at some of the most outstanding wine estates in the Cape. Our first wine tasting is at Rustenburg Estate, where wines have been bottled for an unbroken period since 1682. The estate offers an intimate exclusivity and the beautiful gardens are truly a plant lovers dream.
Our next stop is the beautiful Delaire Graff Estate, nestled between majestic mountains and overlooking the vineyards of Stellenbosch.
The original artworks from Laurence Graffs personal collection are on display throughout, representing some of South Africas finest contemporary artists. After a wine tasting and fascinating walk through this estate, we travel to Franschhoek for lunch at a local restaurant (own account) before stopping at L’Ormarins, home of Antonij Rupert Wines. L’Ormarins was restored in 1984 and the Manor House and Cellar declared national monuments. The Antonij Rupert Cellar is a state-of-the-art gravity fed cellar with revolving ceiling and underground barrel cellar built in memory of Antonij Rupert. The Franschhoek Motor Museum at the magnificent L’Ormarins offers the opportunity to look back at more than 100 years of motoring history, with its unique and exciting collection of more than 300 vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles and memorabilia.
After a day of spectacular views of valleys and farms, we depart for Cape Town arriving at approximately 17h30.
