Anthonij Rupert Wine Estate
From mid-May visitors to the picture perfect Anthonij Rupert Wine Estate, situated in the Franschhoek Wine Valley, can look forward to two new tasting experiences.

Indulge the senses with a delectable Italian Cheese and Wine Tasting at the Terra del Capo Tasting Room. This interactive, fun and educational tasting is presented by one of the Tasting Room assistants, who will take you through the cheese tasting, sharing information about how the cheeses have been made and their places of origin.

The fine cheese selection comprises both local and imported artisanal cheese, made in true Italian style. They range from mild to strong and creamy to grainy, and include well-known cheeses such as Smoked Mozzarella, aged Fontina, and Gorgonzola.

Wine from the food friendly Terra del Capo range accompanies the cheese tasting to create an authentic Italian taste experience.

Tea enthusiasts can look forward to an elegant Tea Tasting at the Anthonij Rupert Tasting Room amidst exquisite mid-nineteenth century art and décor. The Premier Grand Cru or Specialty Rooibos Tea tastings are recommended to be enjoyed in conjunction with the estate’s High Tea offering, or before or after a wine tasting.

Included in the tasting is a selection of four teas, presented by the Tasting Room assistants in a fun and educational fashion. Choose from either the Rooibos Tea Tasting, which includes traditional Rooibos as well as delicious flavoured versions. Alternatively there is the opportunity to sample Grand Cru Prestige Teas from the TWG Luxury Tea Company.

The Italian Cheese and Wine Pairing costs R60 per person, and the Tea Tasting R30 per person, respectively. Available during normal tasting room hours with pre-booking required for six or more persons. A maximum group size of 20 guests can be accommodated.
