Paserene is a small, family operated winery owned by Martin Smith and Ndabe Mareda, the sole purpose of which is to produce high-end, luxury wines. Great care was given to ensure that the wines produced, and artwork on the labels, are truly authentic to its “sense of place and people” and will guarantee a lasting legacy.

The name Paserene comes from the Latin word Passeriformes, the order of "traveling and free" birds containing swifts and swallows. Paserene is situated in the quaint town of Franschhoek and is home to their award-winning wine range. A professional and contemporary tasting lounge is situated on the property.

    Far exceeded our expectations. Food, wine and service was absolutely exceptional and the scenery was spectacular. The Marathon wine was our favourite wine from all of the vineyards we visited that day and we would definitely recommend the breakfast pairing to anyone thinking of visiting the vineyard in the future.

    Everything great - but I thought it was a restaurant. It is not a lunch venue - just cheese and bread and a few bits to accompany really great wine.
