A visit to Spice Route is an enchanting experience, offering an array of delightful tastings that promise an exceptional day out. As a passionate enthusiast of beer tastings, I found the brewery's offerings to be a veritable paradise for my taste buds. The diverse range of brews, each with its unique character and notes, provided a captivating exploration of the craft.
Conversely, my wife found her joy in the elegant world of spirits and chocolate tastings. The combination of fine spirits and decadent chocolates made for an exquisite pairing that left her in awe of the intricate flavors and textures.
However, Spice Route isn't merely a haven for tasting adventures; it's also home to La Grapperia Pizza & Bistro, an establishment where dining becomes an art. My personal favorite, the Eisbein, is an epitome of culinary excellence. Its succulent, tender meat with crispy, flavorful skin is unparalleled, making it a true standout. I wholeheartedly assert that no other place can rival its exquisite taste.
Spice Route, beyond its culinary and libation offerings, is an idyllic setting for a day out, whether with your loved ones or friends. The picturesque surroundings and the warm, welcoming ambiance create a perfect backdrop for memorable moments. The rolling vineyards and panoramic views only enhance the overall experience, making it a destination to savor and cherish.
In summation, a visit to Spice Route is a multi-faceted delight for those seeking a day of exploration and indulgence. From beer and spirits tastings to extraordinary dining experiences, it's a place where the senses are enraptured, and where you can escape the everyday, be it with loved...
Read moreI hadn't been in the restaurant and it was my first time wine tasting (for a surprisingly cheap price). We went chocolate tasting (the De Villiers brand is incredible, but being a milk chocolate lover, despite the sea salt tasting very nice I enjoyed the skinny cappuccino the most.) We later went Gin tasting first (I enjoyed the Double Delight Rose Gin) and then went to go and taste the sorbets (I suggest sharing one tasting platter amongst the both of you otherwise you might end up finding yourself getting sick, something we unfortunately had to discover on our own.) When we first arrived we went to the Pizzeria, and despite not being a vegetarian, I enjoyed the large spinach and feta pizza more then the more meaty pizza we had ordered alongside it. After the ice cream we went wine tasting were we had 4 different wines accompanied by cheese and cured meats. I loved the wine tasting to bits the most (even more so then the chocolate) and would definitely return to try the 7 wines again. The Saffron white wine caught my attention the most for its beautiful colour as a Rosé. The dark red wine, Chakalaka was also indeed flavoursome...
Read moreBeautiful destination always loved coming here. However the past experience was tragic. We were there for 2 of my friends birthday celebration. We called a couple of days inadvance to book a table at their wine tasting area. We were told that it was NOT necessary to book a table. Cool. Arrived there and there was no space (obviously) we had no problem waiting for a table. We were told that they would place us at the next big table that opens up (keep in mind there are several big tables with only 2 people sitting at each of them -why?). We were shuffled from one spot to the next for 2 hours as we waited for a table. During this time we could not do the wine tasting. No one was willing to serve us or help. Ended up just ditching the wine tasting experience and sat on the lawn drinking some wine. Staff did not try to accommodate us or anything. There were several other groups of people who this happened to as well. Used to be such a wonderful place with such wonderful staff. Highly...
