Visitor Tips

• Tastings typically run midday onwards; booking ahead is advisable for the child-friendly terraces or the restaurant.
• Arrive with time to spare so you can enjoy the terrace views, stroll through the grounds and maybe relax with a glass on the lawn.
• Dress smart-casual; for the Gåte dining experience you may wish to elevate your attire slightly.
• Combine your visit with other nearby Stellenbosch wine estates — the region is rich with options and Quoin Rock makes a refined base for a half-day or full-day outing.
