Estate with a breathtaking view of the mountains. The wines we were able to taste are of high quality! The White Reserve 2021 particularly stands out.

Dellair Graeff Winery-Restaurant-Lodge. A bit of everything, but what is really really really good??? Well, the wines for tasting (top class range) were all good. We had split our small group into two groups, with one group having a wine tasting and the other having lunch in the restaurant. Both were very good. European top class. All the staff were well-trained, attentive and courteous. The restaurant was the highlight overall. It was well equipped, had a great view of the mountains and the Franschoek Valley. Super. Cold plates with air-dried ham and salami products were offered at the wine tasting. And lots of good cheese. All in all, and with the visit to the beautiful lodge, I can give 9.99 out of 10.0 points in every respect. There was something that bothered me at the wine farm. But I can't say what it was. Maybe it was the latent pressure that we had been made aware of the sale of wine to the EU over and over again. I had been offered 4-5 times that I could order now. That was the only thing I didn't like. I think if that had been gone, I would have given 10.0 out of 10.0.

We arrived without a reservation and waited about 20 minutes. The service was a bit slow. We asked for water and it didn't come, then they brought the water and there was no glass. The wines were good and the place was nice. We didn't eat there, we just did the tasting.

We only stopped here for lunch so I cannot comment on the rooms or the rest of the hotel. The food and views however were phenomenal, as was the service from the team. They were happy to amend dishes to our requirements. The highlight was the colour changing gin made with a local plant.
