If your idea of winter bliss involves a roaring fire, velvety red wine, and gourmet comfort food, Benguela Cove Wine Estate has just the event to thaw your soul.
On Saturday, 14 June 2025, from 16:00 to 19:00, the estate invites guests to wrap themselves in the warmth of its Winter Fireside Wine Tasting — a sensory experience tailor-made for cosy season.
Each bite and sip has been designed to complement the other, delivering a slow-burn tasting journey that feels as intimate as it is indulgent — all for R450 per person.
- Set against the stunning backdrop of Hermanus’ lagoon views and the moody beauty of the Overberg, this indulgent evening pairs four premium red wines with four thoughtfully crafted small plates.
What to Expect
Picture this: crackling fireplaces, ambient lighting, the hum of good conversation, and a glass of something bold and rich in hand. Add in small plates that hug your tastebuds like your favourite winter scarf, and you’ve got the perfect Saturday night.
It’s elegant without being uptight, cosy without being sleepy, and absolutely ideal for:
-
Wine lovers who appreciate a good pour
-
Foodies on the hunt for seasonal soul food
-
Couples craving a romantic night out
-
Friends looking to swap Netflix for something a little more grown-up
