Our take
The easiest 'wow' wine stop from Cape Town, and the Sauvignon is solid.

Why it's worth your time
The view from the tasting room is the easiest 'wow' wine stop from Cape Town. The Sauvignon Blanc is the bottle; the Sunday lunch is the reason to stay.
What we love
The Table Bay view from the tasting room — the best from any cellar near the city.
What to know
A co-operative cellar founded in 1998, sourcing from member farms on the Tygerberg hills; the proximity to the city makes it the closest serious tasting to central Cape Town.
