    Greeted with a glass of Chenin on arrival which was an excellent delectable fruity taste. Little finger eats while doing the red Syrah tasting was scrumptious and very tasty The home cooked meal was an experience in itself with fresh seasonal ingredients and divine flavours with pairing of Syrah in the beautiful rustic tasting room/wine cellar with lovely romantic ambience. Very friendly staff and eager to serve

    I went there for the Farm Walk & Wine Tasting which was time well spent and an enjoyable experience. Management / Owners and the staff are professional and friendly and they have lovely wine. I shall definitely go back to have lunch at The Kraal after having heard more about it.

    My husband and I loved everything about our visit to Joostenberg Winery. The food and wine are delicious, and the owners and staff are very welcoming and hospitable. It honestly felt like we were visiting friends. We will definitely visit again and we recommend Joostenberg Winery, the Kraal Restaurant and the organised Farm walk to anyone looking for a wonderful meal and outing.
