Gerakaris Family Wines was founded in 2009 by Kath Gerakaris. Our boutique winery in the heart of Craighall Park, Jozi, produces wines from grapes sourced from a single farm in the Swartland, Western Cape. Five wines are made by winemaker Kath Gerakaris. Two Chenin blancs and three Syrahs.

Wine tastings are R150 person. We also serve a cheese board designed to match our wines, show casing four South African cheese producers, and bowls of Cape Olives. We have a small garden and we like it this way because we can chat to everyone about what we do… however it does mean weekends get busy and you need to make a booking ahead of time.

Our wine tastings take from half an hour to an hour and a half depending on the size of your group. We therefore reserve your table for a maximum of 2 hours.

    I am visiting South Africa from the United States. I came to celebrate my 50th birthday. My hotel Mel Rose Arch Marriott suggested this outing. It was great sitting in the back garden. Beautiful experience at the wine tasting!!!

    Debbie was a fantastic wine educator. She made us extremely comfortable, and was generous with our questions. She is a keeper!!! Furthermore, the biltong was a favourite!!! The cheese pairings were well thought out - thank you to the team for such a warm welcome and hosting us.
