Out on the Klipheuwel road, north of the other cellars. The table is the reason to drive that far. It does not fit after two tastings in the hills.

Lunch

A short history

Simon van der Stel granted this land to Olof Bergh in 1698. Bergh's wife, Anna de Koning, later held the farm. The Brink family have had it since 1897.

They replanted vineyards in the 1990s and released wine under the farm's own name from 2005. The table is why you drive out to the Klipheuwel road.

Opening times

The tasting room publishes its own hours, and they change. Check before you drive.
