Taste wines in a family atmosphere, surrounded by mountains – a highlight for connoisseurs in the Cape Winelands.

What you can experience here

A hidden gem in the mountains of the Banhoek region – nestled between the Hottentots-Holland Mountain Catchment Area on one side and the Simonsberg Nature Reserve on the other. Even the small gravel road that passes the Tokara wine estate and winds its way up to this winery hints that something very special awaits you here: a modern farm, surrounded by mountains and vines, far away from traffic and hustle and bustle.

An idyllic place that delights with exceptional wines. My personal favourite is the Thelema Grenache, but the Thelema Sauvignon Blanc is also wonderful. The first wines under the Thelema label were released in 1988 and have since been among the most sought-after wines in the region.

The estate is family-run and offers a peaceful, personal experience – the wine tastings in particular are a real highlight: presented by knowledgeable staff, friendly, and they will sometimes happily open a wine just for you if you would like to try something very special. And all with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. For me an absolute must for all wine and nature lovers.
