We were in Calitzdorp in November and had dinner with the De Krans family - really high quality, great food and very good wines. We had a great evening and of course we also bought a few of their wines - their flagships. Even if it's just a short detour, it's always worth it!

A tranquil and beautiful setting for lunch. Made a turn here on a lovely winter's day. Sipped on the delightful Rose, followed by a very yummy bobotie, veg and rice. My fellow travellers tucked into the soup and a German-style sausage. Highly recommended!
