Fryer's Cove

Fryer's Cove wines are shaped by their surroundings—cold sea breezes, salty soils, and minimal rainfall. These extreme conditions have resulted in bold, expressive wines with a distinctive maritime character. Expect crisp minerality, vibrant acidity, and elegant complexity, especially in varietals like Sauvignon Blanc, which thrive in this cool-climate terroir. The wines reflect a true sense of place and are crafted with sustainability and innovation in mind—from the vines rooted in coastal soil to the use of seawater cooling systems in the winery, reducing environmental impact.

The Jetty Restaurant is a culinary celebration of West Coast flavours and a heartwarming example of community collaboration—70% owned by local residents of Doringbaai. The menu showcases the best of the region, with fresh seafood, seasonal produce, and traditional dishes prepared with flair. Dine with the ocean as your backdrop and enjoy Fryer's Cove wines expertly paired with each meal. A must-visit destination for lovers of good food, good wine, and authentic local hospitality.

Fryer's Cove invites you to taste their distinctive maritime wines at their Jetty Tasting Room, uniquely situated at the edge of the old jetty in Doringbaai.
