Romance Under the Stars: A Valentine’s Day Picnic Experience at Hazendal

This Valentine’s Day, Hazendal Wine Estate invites couples to celebrate love in the most enchanting way possible—with a Picnic Under the Stars.

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Bottelary Hills, this romantic evening promises to be an unforgettable experience for two.

The picnic menu is a celebration of flavour and creativity for a truly memorable experience.

The evening begins with a warm welcome and a refreshing Cap Classique cocktail, setting the tone for a night of indulgence and romance. Couples will be treated to a thoughtfully curated picnic basket filled with gourmet delights, designed to tantalize the taste buds and ignite the senses.
Start with cranberry and thyme challah, beetroot lavash crackers, and a selection of spreads including sundried tomato pesto, hummus, and butter. Savour the rich flavours of pulled beef empanadas, grass-fed roast beef, and cured meats, accompanied by pickled cucumber and aubergine chutney. For a touch of spice, the grilled butter curry chicken thighs with coriander, corn and onion salsa, and roti are a must-try.
The feast continues with a bacon pasta salad, lightly smoked mushrooms, and a roast sweet potato salad featuring feta, mixed balsamic roasted seeds, and a drizzle of honey dressing. For cheese lovers, the Winelands cheese platter, served with green fig preserve, seasonal fruit, and melon preserve, is a delightful treat. End the meal on a sweet note with rose geranium malva, topped with whipped caramella ganache and candied pistachios.

As the sun sets and the stars emerge, live music will fill the air, creating the perfect ambiance for romance. Priced at R1850 per couple, this experience is a celebration of love, luxury, and the beauty of nature.

For those seeking a touch of adventure, Hazendal also offers the Putt-Putt & Picnic Date. Couples can kick off the evening with a lively round of putt-putt, adding a playful twist to the romantic night. After the game, unwind with the same luxurious picnic experience, complete with a Cap Classique cocktail and live entertainment. This unique package is priced at R1950 per couple.
