Grown on old bushvines along the coast, our Groenekloof Sauvignon Blanc is built for exactly this. Good, honest food.
Today that's our Mediterranean flatbread: baby marrow, bocconcini, roast peppers, parmesan, and fresh herbs, straight from the fire.

Straight from the wood-fired oven, and everything you'd want between the flames and the table — smoky char, melted cheese, fresh greens piled high. This is what happens when flames meets a simple, honest recipe.

Kalahari — wagyu beef koftas, pickles, Dalewood Simond, fresh greens
Fromage Deux — mozzarella, parmesan, fresh greens

The view is the first ingredient.
Before anything reaches the plate, this is where it starts. Fresh ingredients, mountains in the distance, the deck just beyond the counter. It's hard not to cook well with a view like this. Some of the best inspiration doesn't come from a recipe book.
It comes from looking up.

Oak doesn't just hold the w**e, it shapes it.

While these barrels sit quietly on the racks, they're doing more work than it looks. Tiny amounts of oxygen pass through the wood over months, softening tannins and rounding out the w**e's edges. At the same time, the oak itself lends flavour, hints of vanilla, spice, toast, sometimes even coconut or clove, depending on how the barrel was made. Nothing about this is fast. It's patience, wood, and time, quietly turning good w**e into something better.

Slow down. Stay a while.

This is a space that doesn't rush you. Sink into the cushions, let the w**e breathe, let the conversation wander. As one of the w**e estates with a restaurant in Stellenbosch, we've built this place for lingering.
Not just tasting and leaving. Some spots are made for passing through. This one's made for staying.

More acknowledgement for the cellar:
Double Gold for Groenekloof Syrah 2023 and Cabernet Sauvignon Stellenbosch 2021, Gold for Groenekloof Sauvignon Blanc 2025, at the 2026 Michelangelo International W**e & Spirits Awards.
Humbled by the recognition, always driven by the pursuit of quality.
