Private Hermanus Wine Tour
Cape Ability Tours
Our journey to Hermanus, along the scenic Clarens Drive, offers spectacular coastal views of False Bay. Visit Stony Point Nature Reserve which is home to one of the largest successful breeding colonies of African Penguins in the world. Our tour continues into the stunningly picturesque Hemel en Aarde Wine Valley for a relaxing, wine-filled experience, with vineyards stretching along the entirety of the Valley. The Hemel-en-Aarde Wine Valley is one of the country’s most celebrated cool-climate wine regions famed for elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and set against dramatic landscapes of rolling vineyards, mountains and ocean breezes. The name ‘Hemel-en-Aarde’ literally means “Sky and Earth,” a fitting description of both the scenery and terroir that shape the wines here. We then journey to the Elgin Wine Valley. Wine tasting in the Elgin Wine Valley is a relaxed, scenic and highly rewarding experience especially for lovers of cool-climate wines. The valley’s unique terroir, cool temperatures and maritime influence create wines with fresh acidity, purity of fruit and elegant balance. Elgin is particularly known for Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc, and increasingly for Syrah, Riesling and other interesting varietals. This includes Wine Tastings at 3 luxury Wine Estates but excludes meals and beverages.
