Rooiberg Winery

Rooiberg processes approximately 13,500 tons of grapes annually, producing a diverse range of red and white wines. With 60% of production focused on white cultivars and 40% on red, the winery places a strong emphasis on quality and sustainable practices. Its portfolio spans natural table wines, dessert wines, and elegant sparkling varieties. Rooiberg’s dedication to excellence has earned multiple awards, including Top Ten Pinotage listings (1997, 2003, 2013, 2016) and Shiraz SA Top 12 accolades (2013, 2021) for its reserve wines. Every bottle reflects the cellar’s deep respect for nature, terroir, and meticulous craftsmanship.

The Red Chair Bistro & Deli at Rooiberg offers a welcoming and relaxed dining experience with views of the mountains and vineyards. Reminiscent of the golden days of ‘padkos’ road-trip stops, the bistro invites guests to slow down and savour wholesome, hearty meals made with fresh ingredients. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick bite or enjoying a leisurely lunch with a glass of Rooiberg wine, the bistro is a memorable part of the Rooiberg experience.
