Join us on Tuesday 22nd July for the opportunity to taste the outstanding wines of one of South Africa's most iconic wine estates, Vergelegen. We're chuffed to have head winemaker, Luke O’Cuinneagain at Vino Towers to run us through his philosophies and wines. Not one to miss.
Founded in 1700, Vergelegen (meaning “situated far away”), is located on the slopes of the Hottentots Holland mountain range overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in the region of Somerset West. Some of the world’s great explorers and visionaries have owned the Estate and helped to shape Vergelegen into what it is today.
This stunning world-class Estate, blends its rich heritage, beauty and sustainability with vision and innovation. Experienced and talented winemaker Luke O’Cuinneagain, fulfils the estate philosophy of ‘harmony between the old and the new’ in the range of wines produced with minimal intervention.
As always, the focus is on conversation and consumption. There will be light nibbles to keep your palate fresh.

- We adore our wonky old building. All we regret is that the staircase to our first floor WC and tasting room is not forgiving and as such rules us out from being accessible. Sorry for the inconvenience it may cause.
