Enjoy the quintessential mini winelands escape when next visiting Anthonij Rupert Estate, situated in the heart of the scenic Franschhoek Wine Valley.
Known for bespoke wine tastings in a magnificent setting, visitors are invited to enjoy an Italian-inspired winelands feast at the Terra del Capo Tasting Room and Antipasti Bar.
On balmy and beautiful days, guests can enjoy an al fresco dining experience in the lush garden under the shade of olive trees. The delicious dishes paired with world class wines are sure to transport you to a place of blissful dolce vita.
This summer’s seasonally inspired menu includes a variety of contemporary and traditional antipasti plates.
Bursting with vibrant, fresh flavours and taking its lead from local Cape Winelands produce, the menu delivers Italian authenticity. Choose from inspired vegetarian, seafood and meat antipasti, or simply opt for a platter or two of expertly-sourced artisanal cheese and charcuterie.
- Vegetarian options include a crunchy spring salad with ricotta crostini, mouthwatering truffle polenta chips and a refreshing watermelon salad with spiced pickled onions, radish and lime salt.
Keeping things local, the smoked Franschhoek trout salad, served with fennel, apple and golden beetroot and drizzled with a honey apple cider vinaigrette, is perfect for a hot summer’s day. Chef HW Pieterse’s homemade Salsiccia sausages, as well as his bresaola produced from estate-raised Black Angus beef, are both a must try.
End off your meal with one of the daily sweet treats on offer.
