Sample Itinerary
A truly sophisticated Winelands experience, stay at a Delaire Graff Lodge and capture that ultimate feeling of escape.
Delaire Graff Estate sits on the slopes of the Botmaskop Mountain peak. Around 20 hectares of vineyards are planted with Bordeaux reds and Chardonnay pesticide-free grapes expertly tended by hand, which thrive in this special climate.
