Anthonij Rupert Tasting Room
The Anthonij Rupert Tasting Room is housed in the historic and renovated Manor House on the farm. Tailored wine tastings of our L’Ormarins, Cape of Good Hope, and Anthonij Rupert wine ranges are offered here. The house is furnished throughout in the mid-nineteenth century Cape Dutch style, with beautiful wood beam ceilings, yellowwood floors, and spacious entertainment areas. A beautiful collection of period art depicting the Cape’s landscape in the mid-nineteenth century adorns the walls, while the rooms are tastefully furnished with carefully sourced antique pieces. The front rooms open onto a veranda with stunning views of the Franschhoek Wine Valley, while the back porch overlooks a rose garden and the Groot Drakenstein Mountains.
We invite you to join us and experience all we have to offer.
