Gravel & Grape 2020

2020 will see Gravel & Grape in its 6th year and offers three race options to experience the thrills and spills of the Breedekloof Wine Valley. This proper mountain biking challenge will be taking place from 08 – 10 May 2020. There is the Gravel & Grape 3 Day Extreme, a challenging three-day stage race covering approximately 187km in total, the Gravel & Grape 2 Day Extreme which is just as challenging as the 3 day, but only covers Saturday and Sunday – a distance of 112km and the Gravel & Grape Adventure for the cyclist not quite ready for the long distances. The Adventure is a two-day ride that follows the same trails as the Extreme, and although it only covers 65km in total, the routes are still technical and challenging. Featuring a unique route that pleases and punishes in equal measure, Gravel & Grape is an event that takes mountain biking back to its roots. With challenging technical riding, it is best suited for riders with a sense of adventure and a well-stocked arsenal of rock-hopping, berm-bending, switchback-sizzling talent. The route has been crafted to reflect the rugged nature of the Breedekloof Wine Valley, but also to show […]

Badsberg Wine Cellar lies in the picturesque Breedekloof, at the foot of the well known Badsberg Mountain, from which the cellar derives its name. The cellar is situated a mere 800m from the Goudini Spa Holiday Resort, 20 km from Worcester and plus minus 80 km from Cape Town. Badsberg’s emblem boasts the rare and protected Haemanthus Coccineus or March Flower, which is found in the area and has pride of place on the Badsberg wine labels. Traditionally, when this flower blooms in March, hanepoot grapes are harvested. Badsberg Wine cellar is situated in the Badsberg Conservancy, an area renowned for the conservation of the indigenous fauna and flora. Since its establishment in 1951, wine makers, members of the cellar and viticulturists at Badsberg have been committed to the production of quality wines year after year. This dedication, together with modern day cellar equipment, enables Badsberg’s cellar-master and his team to produce a range of quality wines that are regularly awarded many prestigious national and international awards. Visitors are invited to taste these award winning white, red and sparkling wines, port, muscadel and heavenly hanepoot in our modern wine tasting centre.

Appropriately named Bergsig, meaning “Mountain View “, the estate is nestled on the slopes where the towering Drakenstein and Hex River Mountains meet. This family farm was established in 1843, and is one of only a few wine estates in the Breedekloof district. Owned and run by the Lategan family, De Wet Lategan is the sixth generation winemaker. Situated at the northern entrance of the Bainskloof pass, this very old and traditional wine estate is proud not only of the superior wines that are born and matured here, but also the symbiotic relationship the family has with the fauna and flora. Besides breathtaking scenery, the farms position also provides unique climatic conditions, being situated where the Breedekloof valley narrows. This funnel effect creates cooling winds in summer and sufficient rainfall, coupled with access to mountain hillsides for vineyard planting, all ingredients are in place for producing top quality wines. And the recipe is a success, as reflected by the impressive tally of over 100 awards, trophies and medals received at both local and international wine shows. You are invited to visit Bergsig Estate, and try our award winning wines. You can even enjoy lunch at our Bistro while overlooking the […]

The variety on the blackboard is a showcase of Ashley’s selection of meats that are smoked weekly on site and paired with sides to perfection. Our floor manager is Authur Kadema, originally from Zimbabwe, also known at Pigalle restaurant as King Arthur. He impressed both Deon & Mariëtte so much when he served them there back in 2016 that they approached him to join the team and look after the service and training of the staff – today he is part of the “family” and lives on the farm. All liquor products served in the restaurant is made in the “Ou Stokery” building and no products, wine, beer etc. is allowed to be brought in.

Truffle and Wine pairing @ Slanghoek

– Nestled in the Breedekloof valley at the foot of the Du Toitskloof Mountains, lies the family owned Stofberg Wine Estate. Since the late 1800’s wine making became one of the many traditions of the farm Klipdrift where the current winemaker, Du Toit Stofberg followed in his father’s footsteps as winemaker. In 1949 his father, PJD Stofberg(Piet Tof) joined his uncle, Jacobus Du Toit and aunt, Marina Du Toit(Stofberg) on the farm. Soon Pieter, 3rd Stofberg winemaker of the estate and first namesake of his grandfather will join the family, setting forth the tradition by being the 5th generation winemaker of the estate. The Stofberg private family cellar was the first cellar in the Goudini area to implement cold fermentation. The Stofberg history goes back to 1764 when Jacobus Stofberg arrived at the Cape on board ‘Het Hoop’. Stofberg Estate is a tribute to the noble roots of the Stofberg family, especially to our late father and grandfather Piet Stofberg – an estate where tradition meets vision.

Hendrik Kees Hiking Trail @ Kirabo

In a secluded Breede Valley sanctum, a lone monk hunches over his bench, cackling quietly to himself. Devotion to the lost art of alchemy can drive a man mad, but Brother Nicholas remains stoic in his pursuit of a fresh miracle. Oh, the things he’s seen, concocting and conjuring and staring into the void, all in the name of unearthing the supernatural, the curious and the sublime… MONKS gins are handcrafted and double-distilled in small batches using a hybrid artisanal still called ‘Jennifer’, named after Nic’s mother and of Nic’s own design. Expect intensely flavour-forward botanicals, nine of them hand-picked and many endemic to the area. Combine with crystal-clear mountain waters and the result is a heavenly one. Featuring ripples of citrus, berries and Cape buchu, our gins are designed for immaculate consumption.
