Spier, near Stellenbosch, is one of South Africa’s oldest wine farms with a recorded history dating back to 1692. While rooted in this heritage, they've got a vibrant and conscious energy, and are home to one of the largest collections of contemporary South African art. Spier wines are among the most awarded in the country. Visit Spier, and enjoy these wines paired with wholesome, tasty food made with ingredients grown either on their farm or by trusted, nearby farmers.

The combination of Maritime and mountain is a very unique terroir, and here in Stellenbosch it creates our award-winning Delaire Graff wines. A cooling Atlantic sea breeze washes over our steeply sloping vineyards giving us a rich intensity of fruit. Delaire Graff wines rank among the most prestigious in the Southern Hemisphere. Our unique terroir, on the crest of the panoramic Helshoogte Mountain Pass, is something our ambitious winemaker explores harvest after harvest. A long, slow ripening season ensures world-class clarets and red wines big in structure with soft tannins and elegance. Our white wines capture the freshness of the harvest, while irresistible rosé and a sparkling Brut completes an elegantly balanced portfolio. We are proud to have achieved First Growth status in South Africa – reward for creating our country’s most desirable wines on first pressing. Come and join us in our beautiful Cape Winelands setting for Delaire Graff wine in its most luxurious location.

First and foremost, Fairview is a working farm, housing a collection of micro-businesses all sharing in a common goal – to create artisanal and sustainable produce, with a focus on fine wine and cheese. We’ve been caring custodians of our land since 1693, and invite you to come and visit us and see for yourself how our farm operates, supports the environment and contributes to a more holistic lifestyle. Everything we do is driven by our philosophy of being honest, honouring our heritage and ensuring that ingenuity perpetually flows from our soils and cellars and straight into the heart of your relationship with us. After all, at Fairview, we do things differently.

Stellenbosch wine tour with Wesley

Our driver, Wesley was great! He texted the night prior and arrived on time. He was a great driver and explained along the way. The wine estates were beautiful and the wine was great.

Very nice winery tour

We had a very nice vineyard tour with our knowledgeable driver Ordain. He guided us through some of South Africa’s history and pointed out different places on the way out to the vineyards. We chose to visit Spier, Ernie Els and Delair Graff. Three vineyards were enough for us. Each test still takes some time.

Private tour is best as you can stay as long or as little as you want at each winery. We found one we really liked and stayed longer which would not happen if you were in a group.

Amazing Wine Tour!

Fabulous! Michel picked us up promptly and guided us to 3 delightful wineries. He could have taken us to more, but after 3 stops and lots of tastings, we were finished. At Spier, Waterford, and Marianne, we tasted their premium award winning wines. Favorites Pinotage, Sauvignon Blanc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Yummy!

A perfect day!

My husband and I did a private tour of Stellenbosch vineyards where we could choose the wineries we visited. At our first stop, Spier, we had a tasting of 5 wines each - soon realising shared tastings would be a better way to go! We tried 3 other wineries, Waterford, Tokara, and Fairview. All very different. All very reasonably priced. All worth a visit. A great tour. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful Wine and outstanding day!

Be sure to leave early, they testing stop at 4pm so we were not able to make it to all of them. Such a wonderful day, and our guide was amazing! I recommend asking to stop at Summerhill. It’s a boutique winery and is run by such amazing people. It was a highlight.

A fun, safe and stress-free trip thanks to our knowledgeable guide

We booked a wine tour as part of our honeymoon and we had the most relaxing and romantic day thanks to Wesley looking after us, we didn’t have to stress about anything and just enjoy the wineries that Cape Town had to offer. Wesley had a comfortable car, a good nature, lots of interesting facts and was overall a very friendly person! We were very happy to let him take the lead and his options for wineries and wine tasting did not disappoint.
