Why it's worth your time
Jordan is the 'long lunch with good wine' estate. The tasting is serious; the garden, the bakery, and the restaurant are why you stay the afternoon.
What we love
The bakery, the garden, the long lunch — and the wine is genuinely serious underneath all of it.
What to know
The Long Mountain Syrah is one of the most-awarded single-vineyard reds in the Cape; the estate is a regular Platter's 5-star winner across both its red and white ranges.
