Spookfontein Wines & Tastings

When visiting Hermanus, try and visit the Hemel en Aarde valley wine route. At the moment there is a stop and go in place, it seems like the road collapsed. (December 2025) However it is worth the short wait. Spookfontein wines is a pleasant stop. We have been here before, but this time decided to bring friends along. There is no need to book for wine tasting, however for lunch you needed a booking. The place was packed. There is an outside and inside space. The place is pet friendly! There is an upstairs wine tasting area as well as downstairs outside with a grassy outside space. Some couches available. Also a smoking area around the back. Stunning mountain views. Also the little chapple and venue hire place visible from here. The wines are of a high quality, pricy, but worth it. We purchased some, we also purchased on our previous visit. Tasting ranges from about R110. You can opt for 5 wines, or 4 of the red variety. You can also just taste per glass. A cheese platter was available on our visit, quite enough to share. Thank you. We had a fantastic host who recognized us from a previous time!

Wonderful venue with amazing views and friendly staff. Most importantly, the food always excellent, I love when a waitress can suggest a wine or menu item etc, and Marianne did just that. Thank you, Marianne, for the super service, you made us feel right at home. All the staff was great. Pet friendly was also a bonus!

Fantastic views, great service and tasty food. Wine also lovely. Service was good. Lovely location. Great for groups or just a couple.

We just loved this wine estate! Lovely architecture and stunning venue. The wines were excellent and lovely presentation... definitely worth another visit. ❣️

Food was 5 out of 5, view 5 out of 5, waitresses were very good. Not a great warming atmosphere from the welcoming host and rude.

Visited on Saturday, a windy but beautiful day that gave us an amazing skyline that was on the move! Wines were delicious, platter was nice (we opted for the charcuterie and added a cheese). Service was friendly. Most delicious aromas wafting up from the Restaurant which is close by.

We had a lovely afternoon here wine tasting and enjoying a sharing platter. Stuart who did our tasting was very friendly, engaging and knowledgeable, we really enjoyed the wines too!
