Fun filled and informative with each experience tailored to individual preferences, Explore Sideways will bring you unprecedented insider info and exclusive access to some of the best wines in the Cape and the amazing people that are part of the wine culture.
Explore Sideways will collect you at your hotel for your wine tour in Cape Town and take you on a wine tasting experience that will never be forgotten. On arrival at each wine farm you will be introduced to a brief history of the farm and a full wine tasting experience that will satisfy the most avid wine connoisseur.
Taking just three wine farms as an example of your day such as Jordan Wines, DeMorgenzon and Hidden Valley wine farm will give you an idea of what lies in store for you on your wine tour in Cape Town.
Jordan Wines is a family-run wine estate, with Kathy and Gary spearheading the growth and development of this highly successful vineyard which has been rated as one of the Top Wineries in South Africa, making world-class wines from vineyards in Stellenbosch that go back 300 years. Jordan Wines in the hands of the Jordan family has truly created the perfect synergy between soul and soil to produce award winning wines on a farm that will make you look back in longing as you head for your next destination.
Once you reach DeMorgenzon you will be treated to the same level of attention from a rare breed of vintners who pipe Baroque music through their vineyards based on a belief that the power of music influences the ripening process. This ‘garden vineyard’ up to 400m above sea level opens to stunning vistas from Cape Town and Table Mountain to the Helderberg and Simonsberg Mountains framed in the background by the ocean. There is no doubt that you will taste the quality of the grapes grown in this bio diverse environment and the beauty of these ‘garden vineyards’ in every sip of DeMorgenzon wines.
Hidden Valley Wines will be your final stop on this particular wine tour in Cape Town, yet another gem of a vineyard living and breathing on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountains near Stellenbosch, where every elegant, handcrafted wine you taste is the culmination of superior terroir, meticulous selection in the vineyard and gentle winemaking practices.
Arriving at your hotel after a day spent amidst such beauty among vintners and people of the vine passionate about what they do you may leave you feeling a little sad, but don’t let that stop you from exploring the rest of the fully immersive Cape winelands tours Explore Sideways has put together, or contact the team to create your very own wine farms in Cape Town experience to suit your unique tastes!
