Wine Tasting

The cellar’s inviting tasting room provides the perfect setting to sample their exceptional wines while taking in sweeping views of the surrounding vineyards and mountains. Knowledgeable staff are on hand to guide you through the tasting process, sharing insights into the wines and the winemaking journey.

While they offer the standard wine tasting experiences where you can simply taste their wine range, they also do fantastic pairings. So if you are looking for something special, you can try their Candy Floss Pairing or their Marshmallow Pairing (yes, it’s for adults). For the kids, they also have some special on the tasting menu: the little ones can enjoy a kiddies pairing where they receive three delicious cookies with a decorating kit (icing and sprinkles), paired with fruit juices.

The Tasting Room is open 7 days a week between 09:00 – 17:00. On Sundays and Public Holidays they are open from 10am until 5pm. You can find the wine tasting prices here: WINE TASTING

Our Experience

We headed to Perdeberg Cellar for a fancy wine tasting for myself. I saw their candy floss pairing online and definitely wanted to try it out. Amd what can I say, it was so yummy and even eye candy that I’m glad we went. We were positively surprised when we also found the kiddies pairing on the menu and the kids loved decorating the cookies. They were huge and they had lots of fun decorating them in their own way. They also got a colour-in picture and juice and the rest of the time, they simply entertained themselves on the jungle gym which is conveniently located next to the outside seating area. Unfortunately, we were too late for the restaurant, but we will make sure to go back some time to also have some lovely lunch with them.
