Our 18th century classic Cape Dutch building, that originally served as the cellar, has come full circle. Now home to Vergenoegd Löw’s Wine Lounge for superb wine experiences and a relaxed, refined and family-friendly, farm-to-table Restaurant, where the menu is inspired by our wines. Both conceived by renowned Cape gastronomist Michelle Theron.

All wines carry the imprint of the sea, less than 5km away. Cooling Atlantic Oceans winds slow down ripening to yield fruit rich in concentration and balance. We call our location merroir: a combination of mer/sea and terroir.


Wine Lounge
Sample award-winning wines across themes or savour with local artisanal food flavours in cheese and charcuterie. We also offer our Cap Classique matched with traditional sweet treats.
A highlight is the signature Indigenous Food & Wine Pairing: 7 wines, 7 paired dishes featuring local, native ingredients and flavours, and 7 stories that celebrate local flavour ingenuity and inventiveness.


Restaurant
Dishes are made from ingredients raised regeneratively in soils brimming with life, and seasons dictate the mood and the food. Monday to Saturday, dine from the à la carte menu. Sunday Celebrations are for sharing generous tables laden with plentiful platters. Families, friends and fellow-diners gather round to delight in nature’s abundance.

    Loved everything about this place. However, we thought the breakfast was a tad expensive

    We booked for a wine tasting and platters. The staff mean well, but weren't very attentive in the beginning. We had to ask multiple times for guidance through the tasting options and had to prompt the waiter to take orders. The food and wine was lovely, but the whole tasting experience can be improved. The "cellar door" prices are also too high, in my opinion.
