If the Easter Bunny had good taste in wine and a flair for scenic backdrops, he’d 100% be hanging out at Cavalli Estate in Somerset West.
With rolling lawns, a dreamy organic garden, and views of the Helderberg mountains that’ll have your camera working overtime, Cavalli is flipping the Easter script with a picnic that’s more fine dining on a blanket than soggy sandwich in the park.
From April 18 to 20, 2025, Cavalli is turning its lush estate into the ultimate Easter picnic zone — complete with proper crockery (no wobbly paper plates here), real cutlery, and baskets packed with enough gourmet goodness to make you question every past picnic experience.
So, what’s inside the basket? Let’s just say it’s a far cry from carrot sticks and peanut butter sarmies. You’re getting:
🥖 Seed loaf with whipped herb butter
🧀 Smoked cheese
🍢 Sesame & ginger chicken sosaties
🥧 Quiche au fromage
🐟 Trout pâté
🥗 Seasonal salads
🍰 Basque-style cheesecake and zingy lemon madeleines to round things off
It’s like your foodie dreams packed into a basket for two. The best part? You get to enjoy it surrounded by designer gardens, with the option to sip Cavalli wines from their Tasting Terrace. Wine isn’t included in the R795 price tag (which covers two people), but honestly, that just gives you an excuse to upgrade your outing with a tasting: R100 for three wines or R175 for six.
Pick-up is between 12pm and 2pm, and you’ll need to book at least 24 hours in advance — so don’t leave it to the last minute unless you want serious picnic FOMO.

This Easter, ditch the buffet and go picnic-style — just with more style, more flavour, and way better views. The Easter Bunny would approve. 🐇🍷🧺
