So I was teasing you guys a little bit in last night’s reel — I actually do have an awesome new wine-and-foodie destination to share with you 🍷✨

De Kleine Wijn Fonteine has just opened a brand-new tasting room and accommodation in Tulbagh… and that’s not even the best part!

Dutch Michelin-starred chef Peter Gast will be taking up residency in October 2026, hosting small, intimate dining experiences set across stunning locations around the De Kleine Wijn Fonteine wine farm.

Bookings are limited, and reservations open 30–60 days in advance, so save this one to your calendar.

Huge congratulations to winemaker Wynard Grobler and his amazing wife, Anya. I adore everything that is De Kleine Wijn — a place of surreal beauty and serenity, 100% worthy of attention and praise.

The only bad thing about visiting… was having to leave and go home. .3fonteine

Shiraz has been a flagship variety for Fairview since 1974. Their unwavering passion for this grape remains as strong today, and their timeless commitment has earned them numerous prestigious wine awards — reaffirming Fairview's status as a Shiraz-producing gem in the Cape Winelands.

Charles Back (third-generation owner of Fairview) has quoted "Sometime I think Shiraz flows through my vains". 🍇💪

If you're a Shiraz fan definitely give them a try
💃🍷

Fairview Shiraz 2021
Sourced from a selection of Fairview’s best vineyards on Paarl Mountain as well as some parcels from the Swartland and cooler Atlantic vineyards in Darling, each region contributes to the complexity, balance, and structure of this wine. The nose invites with notes of black pepper, red berries, and plum, with a whiff of lavender. The palate has plummy red fruit with signature spice notes and an elegant finish. Drinking beautifully now, but will age well for 5 to 8 years, under good storage conditions.

Retail price: R125
