A look inside Bloemendal

The inside track

The estate

Established in 1702, Bloemendal Wine Estate is a historic destination in the Durbanville Wine Valley offering award-winning wines, diverse dining options, and extensive mountain biking trails.

Discover the allure of Bloemendal Wine Estate, a historic gem nestled in the heart of the Durbanville Valley.

Bloemendal, which has one of the most breathtaking views in the Durbanville Valley, collaborates with a small number of vineyards and uses only 10% of its fruit for its own wines. In its tiny, boutique cellar, Bloemendal wines are produced, and the results are, to put it mildly, remarkable. The Bon Amis restaurant's spacious wooden terrace, which offers unrivalled views and enhances the experience, is perfect for events and weddings.

Wine

The wines at Bloemendal Estate in Durbanville are a testament to the estate's dedication to producing exceptional expressions of the region's terroir. With a focus on quality and craftsmanship, their wines showcase the distinct characteristics of the vineyards. From elegant white wines with vibrant fruit flavours and refreshing acidity to captivating red wines that exhibit depth, complexity, and velvety textures, Bloemendal offers a diverse portfolio to cater to different palates.

Andri Hanekom, a brilliant winemaker, creates Bloemendal Estate wines in a tiny boutique cellar. He employs both ancient and modern world techniques to create wines that reflect the distinct terroir.

Dining

Bon Amis is a famous family restaurant where friends and family may gather for quality time. The interior is where understated elegance and utility come together to create a sense of space without sacrificing intimacy. The stacking doors lead to an outside seating area with views of the estate, which includes a woodland, duck pond, and a jungle gym for children.

The Rosé Garden at Bloemendal Wine Estate presents a charming outdoor dining space where guests can unwind and enjoy their meals. The venue features covered seating areas adorned with dining tables and chair sets, all situated on a rustic carpet of peach pips. Besides its dining function, this area can also serve as a private events venue. Additionally, the estate offers a large, expansive lawn area that provides various seating arrangements, ranging from casual loungers to bar tables and chairs. Visitors can relish live music performances by beloved local musicians on weekends, as well as watch live sporting events on flat-screen TVs. A rustic-chic bar area caters to patrons with a selection of beer-on-tap, the estate's award-winning wines, and other alcoholic beverages.

Wine Tasting

Discover the estate's exquisite wines through a wine-tasting experience. Sample a variety of their handcrafted wines, including their acclaimed white, red, and rosé wines. Knowledgeable staff members are available to guide you through the tasting, providing insights into the winemaking process and the unique characteristics of each wine.
