Nederburg is making a strong case for reclaiming Friday nights this winter with First Fridays at The Courtyard, a monthly gathering built around good wine, comforting food and the kind of atmosphere that makes leaving feel optional.
Taking place on the first Friday of every winter month, the experience invites guests to ease into the weekend in a way that feels effortlessly relaxed.
The cellar doors stay open until 20h00, creating extra time for after-work catch-ups, family meetups or simply an excuse to swap the usual Friday routine for something warmer.
- For R150 per person, guests receive a glass from the Nederburg Winemasters range along with their choice of any Courtyard pizza, a pairing that feels particularly well suited to colder evenings. The image says it all: golden pizza slices loaded with colourful toppings, a crisp glass of white wine, a freshly poured beer, and the kind of shared-table energy that turns a quick stop into a full evening.
Set around the fireplace in The Courtyard, the mood is intentionally unhurried. Live music adds just enough atmosphere without competing with conversation, while the combination of fresh pizza, flowing wine and cosy surroundings delivers winter comfort without trying too hard.
Running on 1 May, 5 June, 3 July and 7 August 2026, First Fridays at The Courtyard offers a simple formula that works: arrive hungry, bring good company and settle in. Booking via Dineplan is recommended, as seating is limited.
