And just like that, harvest 2023 has officially come to an end. There has been a lot of activity around here over the past month
Welcome to Rijk’s Wine Estate & Hotel
Rijk’s is situated in the Tulbagh Valley, 120km North East of Cape Town. We are a family-owned estate where good wine, food, family and friends come together. Sustainably farmed with a vision for the future, the Estate continually produces award winning wines. Guests are invited to join us for a wine tasting, enjoy a meal at the restaurant or stay over in our boutique hotel.
Our Wines
We focus solely on Chenin Blanc and Pinotage. Rooted deep in rich vertical shale soils and experiencing a Mediterranean climate with cool summer winds, we believe we have an ideal environment for making exceptional wines. With ethical farming and cellar practices we really take pride in what we put in the bottle and our wine has been enjoyed by people all over the world.
Farm Hotel
Experience panoramic views of the vineyards, surrounded by the Witzenberg and Winterhoek mountains, the hotel is situated on the farm, offering a relaxing and tranquil environment. Our modern farm style rooms are elegantly styled in traditional Cape Dutch buildings.
Our Restaurant
Traditional, homestyle cooking with an emphasis on proudly South African cuisine is what you can expect at our restaurant. Uninterrupted views of the vineyards and surrounding mountains in front of you, we invite you to join us for a meal or even just a glass of wine paired with one of our platters. Bookings are recommended.
Farm Activities
You could be relaxing at our EcoPool, going for a walk through the vineyards, bird watching, cycling with your children, fishing and so much more. We have something for everyone.
EcoPool
Ever wondered what it might feel like to swim in a fresh mountain stream?
Our completely natural and chemical free pool is filtered by a complex eco system which means that we don’t add any chlorine or chemicals to keep it clear. The water goes through the plants which act as a filter, cleansing the water and then the water returns to the main pool where you swim.
