Summary: De Grendel’s new Cellar Tour & Wine Tasting Experience offers guests a guided look behind the scenes of the winemaking process, followed by a curated tasting in the Tasting Room.

There is something rather satisfying about tasting a wine after seeing where the work actually happens, and De Grendel is giving guests the chance to do exactly that with its new Cellar Tour & Wine Tasting Experience.
The experience takes guests into the heart of the De Grendel cellar for a guided introduction to the winemaking process and the journey from vineyard to bottle.
It is an opportunity to go beyond the tasting counter and get a closer look at how De Grendel wines come together before they eventually find their way into a glass.
- Guests arrive at 09:30, with the cellar tour beginning at 10:00. Once the tour is complete, the experience moves back to the De Grendel Tasting Room at 11:00 for a curated tasting of De Grendel wines. The experience is available on 15 and 29 August, and 5 and 12 September, with tickets priced at R350 per person.
It should appeal particularly to wine lovers who enjoy knowing a little more about what is in their glass. Instead of simply tasting through a selection of wines, guests first get context around the cellar and winemaking process, then settle into the tasting with a better understanding of the journey behind each bottle.
Bookings via Dineplan. The experience is available to guests aged 18 and older and is not wheelchair accessible. For enquiries, guests can contact tasting@degrendel.co.za or call 021 558 6280.
