Discover the Durbanville Wine Valley

The Durbanville Wine Valley sits on Cape Town’s northern doorstep, roughly 20 minutes from the city centre. Here, golden wheat fields give way to rolling vineyard hills, and the views stretch all the way to Table Mountain on a clear day.

Cool breezes from the Atlantic sweep across the slopes each afternoon. As a result, the grapes ripen slowly and keep their freshness. That is why Durbanville is best known for vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, along with smooth Merlot, Pinotage and Shiraz.

Why visit

  • Wine country without the long drive, ideal for a half-day outing
  • Award-winning Sauvignon Blanc and approachable red wines
  • Relaxed farm restaurants, picnics and family-friendly venues
  • Sunset tastings with views over Table Bay and the city
