As the sun dips behind the vineyards and the air fills with the scent of ripe grapes and wood fire, Nederburg invites wine lovers to experience harvest season in its most enchanting form.
Harvest at Dusk is not just an event — it’s a celebration of flavour, tradition, and the joy of getting your hands (and feet) a little purple.
Taking place on 28 February 2026, this immersive evening begins with a warm welcome: freshly poured drinks, elegant canapés, and the rare chance to sip on fermenting 2026 grape must alongside Nederburg’s winemakers. It’s harvest season, after all, and nothing captures its energy quite like tasting wine at its very beginning.
- From there, guests climb aboard a tractor ride into the vineyards, where the real fun begins. Grapes are hand-picked straight from the vine before everyone heads back to the historic Manor House lawns to take part in a timeless harvest ritual — grape stomping. Shoes off, laughter on, and phones at the ready, it’s a moment that blends old-world tradition with pure, unfiltered joy.
As dusk settles over the estate, the evening shifts effortlessly into indulgence. A fire-inspired three-course dinner is served, each dish thoughtfully paired with Nederburg wines that reflect the richness of the harvest. Long tables, glowing flames, and good conversation set the tone for a relaxed yet refined feast.
And just when guests think the night couldn’t get any better, the music starts. With stars overhead and glasses raised, Harvest at Dusk ends not with formality, but with dancing — barefoot on the lawns, celebrating summer, wine, and the simple pleasure of being together.
Priced at R1 495 per person, the ticket includes welcome drinks and canapés, the full harvest experience, and a three-course dinner with wine pairing. A cash bar is available, ensuring the celebrations can continue long into the evening.
