Visit the wine estate of Eikehof to find out about the fermentation process and taste Africa's finest wines. This family business, nestled in the shade of the oak forest along the main road from which it gained its name, is more than a century old. See the oldest block of Semillon bush vines in South Africa, which date back to 1902. Plan a short visit, or organize a wedding, birthday celebration, or a corporate party at a specially designated venue under the oak trees. Put Eikehof and other Franschhoek attractions into our Franschhoek trip planner, and watch your holiday take shape.

What a lovely experience. Kind and friendly service that make you feel absolutely at home. Cheese & meat platter slightly underwhelming but the wines were great. Would also recommend ending the tasting with some port on the grass.

Amazing experience. Francois and his team are take hospitality to a new level. The wines are fantastic and very drinkable. Great prices as well. Shared the cheese and meat platter, as well as taste the old vine Semillon.
