Exceptional and Prestigious Wines from Tygerberg Hill.

Nestled atop Tygerberg Hill, De Grendel showcases Table Mountain, the city, and the seaboard all in one landscape. Just 20 minutes from the city, you will be greeted by a dramatic expanse of land that is home to our vineyards, carefully crafted by Winemaker's Guild member Charles Hopkins to produce prestigious wines of consistently exceptional quality.

Oldest and Magnificient Winery of Cape Town

One of Cape Town's oldest farms, De Grendel, has a magnificent centuries-old history within the Graaff family. Perfectly situated on high, sea-facing slopes overlooking unmatched vistas of Cape Town, it is the only vineyard in the country that is 350m above sea level and only seven kilometres from the sea.

Very good food. Great view of Cape Town. Unfortunately there were a lot of clouds. Can only recommend it.

We visited De Grendel Wine Estate and Restaurant for Valentine’s celebration and had a fantastic time. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the service was warm and attentive. The stunning views and peaceful atmosphere made the experience even better.

We have my mom-in-law visiting from Spain, and I had booked a table at De Grendal about a month prior as I've not been able to secure a reservation at short notice, and have wanted to dine at De Grendal for ages now. We could honestly not have asked for a more perfect dining experience to introduce my husband's mom to eating out in SA! 5* Service 5* Ambiance 5* Wine selection 5* Food Our evening commenced with a complimentary bread selection; each boasting different flavors of herbs. De Grendal has a great choice of wines, which are served per glass or bottle and not excessively expensive. Their menu also suggests wines to pair with each meal. The 2 course meal is R575 a person and worth every single cent! I can not tell you when last I enjoyed my meal so thoroughly and there wasn't a bite that any of us could complain about. It truly was a perfect dining experience! I wish we had space in our tummies to try the dessert

The location offers some of the best views in Cape Town, with Signal Hill, Lions Head, and the majestic Table Mountain all visible from the vineyard. The scenery alone is worth the visit, but the wine tasting experience elevated it even further. Our host, Jamie, was absolutely charming and made us feel right at home. Her knowledge of the wines was impressive, and she guided us through the tasting with warmth and expertise. We were very pleased with both the wines and the overall atmosphere at De Grendel. A truly remarkable place to visit!

One of the best lunch experiences ever had. The food and wine pairing was incredible. The view of table mountain even better. The staff were all so lovely and made us feel so welcome. A great way to start a SA holiday.

Perfect setting! The view of Cape Town and Table Mountain with a perfect sunset, coupled with excellent food and wine made for a unique evening! Unfortunately, every evening comes to an end. It was recommended by friends and it was a very, very good recommendation! We would love to come back if we are ever in Cape Town again.
