Glenelly Estate — Attraction in Stellenbosch Local Municipality

This wine farm is close to town and offers truly beautiful views. It has a lot of potential. Somehow it just lacks that animating energy and life that you would like to experience on a Friday afternoon. At the time we were the only visitors tasting wine. There is however a real authentic charm from the farm life that unfolds on the fields before you. With a tractor in the distance and birds chirping as they dance between tree branches, the sun setting beautifully behind them. Service was friendly and the wines were presented adequately. I very much enjoyed the 2014 Lady May. There are also very affordable tasting options. There is a manned safety gate at the main entrance and semi covered parking bays. The gardens and grounds are beautifully kept and well maintained. The glasses were unfortunately not very clean, and had cloudy marks that I presume were left by a dishwasher.

My recent visit to The Vine Bistro at Glenelly Estate was nothing short of exceptional. This charming estate in Stellenbosch, offers breathtaking views of the mountains and beautifully maintained gardens, creating a picturesque backdrop for a delightful dining experience.

I had the pleasure of dining with my German friends, making us a table of eight people. The menu, which boasts seasonal dishes, did not disappoint. Each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. To top it off, the staff surprised us with additional dessert tasters, which was a delightful complement to an already delicious meal.

The service at The Vine Bistro was impeccable. The staff was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that we had a memorable dining experience.

I cannot recommend The Vine Bistro at Glenelly Estate highly enough. Whether you're a local or a visitor to Stellenbosch, this restaurant is a must-visit. I look forward to returning soon to indulge in more of their delectable dishes and soak in the...

Absolutely beautiful wine farm, love the way the restaurant looks out onto the hills of vines.

We tried the wine tasting and enjoyed the experience with a knowledgeable wine server. Liked that we were able to customize the tasting to specific wines. Wine tasting on classic selection is R10 a bottle and on the reserve R40 for two vintages of the same cultivar and then the Premier selection is R50.

Stand out wine was the Cab Franc and Chardonnay. When you order a case of wine they do free delivery anywhere is SA. Also tasting fee is waived depending on what you buy and quantity.

Do recommend to visit and maybe have lunch at their beautiful restaurant. Also beautiful mountain views as with most farms...
