Create lasting memories with these incredible tours at Weltevrede!
The new visitor tours give individual expression to the dual pillars on which Weltevrede’s reputation now rests: Chardonnay, which has thrived here thanks to a regional concentration of limestone soils; and, Cap Classique.
The changes flow from a focused strategy that can only begin and end with wine.
“My vision for the wines of Weltevrede is to be a pure expression of terroir in which it is rooted. Our wines should have personality dictated by the soil. It should have a sense of place. -says Philip Jonker, fourth generation winemaker-proprietor.
The historic reception hall serves as the departure point for the tours. Visitors are guided through the underground network. Candles and muted lighting retain the hallowed ambience.
Each underground tour takes two hours to complete and includes wine tasting. Create Cap Classique includes a unique interactive experience where visitors can disgorge, dosage, cork, foil and label their own Cap Classique bottle. Tours may be taken consecutively to give you the best of both words.
