🍷 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁: Baccō Estate

Come for the w**e. Stay for the view.

We recently visited Baccō Estate in Paarl, where the tasting area overlooks two of the region’s most recognisable landmarks: Paarl Rock and the Taal Monument.

We sampled the Full Flight Tasting, but one w**e stood comfortably above the rest: the Prelude Red Blend 2019. Smooth, medium-bodied and full of flavour, it’s the kind of w**e you could enjoy beside a fire, with good friends or simply at home on the sofa.

Our verdict? Baccō is worth visiting for the Prelude and the view alone.

📍 Baccō Estate, Paarl

Five reasons to visit the Cape W**elands without mentioning the obvious one:

🍷Cape Dutch buildings with centuries of stories
🍷Gardens you could explore for hours
🍷Restaurants built around local, seasonal ingredients
🍷Contemporary South African art in unexpected places
🍷Mountain views that make lunch last much longer than planned

The best W**elands days aren’t centred around one tasting.

They’re built from all the little discoveries in between.

❤ Save this for the next time someone says, “But I don’t really drink w**e.”

The biggest W**elands mistake?

Saving every visit for a perfect summer day.

Cloudy Cape days bring mist over the mountains, quieter tasting rooms, long lunches beside fireplaces and the kind of soft light that makes every photograph look cinematic, just like this one from **e

Pack a jacket. Choose an estate with a beautiful restaurant. Order something warm and let the weather become part of the day.

The W**elands don’t lose their beauty in winter. They simply change the mood.

A useful warning before visiting Babylonstoren:

Do not treat it as a quick stop between estates.

Its extraordinary garden contains more than 300 edible plant species, but that’s only the beginning. There are shaded pathways, farm animals, a bakery, a coffee roastery, restaurants and a gelato room supplied with milk from the farm’s own water buffalo.

Our recommendation? Arrive early, wear comfortable shoes and give yourself permission to wander without watching the clock.

This is one place where the detours are the experience.

The oldest residents at Vergelegen W**es aren’t the people.

They’re the enormous camphor trees planted during the early 1700s—living monuments that have stood here for more than three centuries.

If you visit, don’t walk straight from the car to the tasting room. Take the slower route through the historic gardens and stand beneath them for a moment.

Some places are beautiful. Others make you feel how much time has passed.

These aren’t simply very photogenic ducks.

Vergenoegd Löw The W**e Estate's Indian Runner ducks form part of the farm’s natural pest-control team, moving through the vineyards in search of snails and other unwanted visitors.

Their famous daily walk has become one of the most unusual sights in the Cape W**elands—and a brilliant reminder that farming can work with nature rather than against it.

Our recommendation: check the duck-parade time before planning your visit. You really don’t want to arrive five minutes after several hundred ducks have clocked off.

Sushi tastes better with a view like this.

Fresh flavours, beautiful presentation and the peaceful surroundings of Cape Point Vineyards... Finished with a crisp glass of Sauvignon Blanc for those who fancy it.

Would you choose the sushi or the view first? 👀

The kind of laughter that only happens somewhere between the first sip and the second tasting. 😂

Good w**e. Great company. Unforgettable views at Beau Constantia.
