Enjoy the flavours, atmosphere and experience of a tasting flight
from the Cape vineyards in the heart of Gauteng.

The Tasting Room is a concept born of a sunny afternoon's wine tasting in the Cape Winelands. It aims to bring the flavours and atmosphere of a tasting experience in the Cape’s finest vineyards to Gauteng.

The Tasting Room offers restaurant-goers in Gauteng the chance to experience a range of tasting flights without the cost of a trip to the Cape. Enjoy a range of tastings - from the more traditional wine, cheese and olives to the unusual, such as coffee and macarons.

The Tasting Room is a concept designed to provide the customer with a novel experience they can't get in their own province.

Our team has a personal love of both wine and the Cape itself.

    We attended the wine blending evening with Vrede en Lust and it was an unforgettable experience! We had so much fun! It is a beautiful restaurant in a safe area with friendly staff and great food. Look forward to returning to this wonderful restaurant.

    The food was not great, and some of my acquaintances even got a stomach bug from it. We disliked the glasses they served us with and had to request the manager to explain why they were so small. We had initially gone for a wine tasting, but ended up changing our minds due to the overall experience. However, Enoch was an excellent waiter!

    We could barely hear each other as the other guests were loud. The steak was dry and overcooked.
