Rust en Vrede Wine Estate

Absolutely spectacular experience!

We spent an entire afternoon here and it was unforgettable. The wines were exceptional — particularly the reserve range — and the staff were incredibly knowledgeable. The views alone are worth the trip. Highly recommend the extended tasting if you can.

Great wines, lovely setting

Visited on a Saturday with friends and had a wonderful time. The tasting room is well designed and the service was friendly and unhurried. Wine quality is consistently high across the range. The only minor gripe is limited parking on busy weekends.

A must-visit on the wine route

This estate perfectly captures what makes the Cape Winelands special. From the drive up the estate road to the final sip, every detail is considered. The food pairing option is excellent value and showcases wines you would not normally try on their own.

Beautiful estate with good wines

The grounds are immaculately maintained and the tasting experience is well structured. Wines are solid across the board with a couple of standout bottles. The staff were professional though it felt slightly rushed during the busy lunch period.

Pleasant visit but a bit pricey

A decent visit overall. The setting is undeniably beautiful and the wines are good, though I felt the tasting fee was on the higher side for what you get. Some of the entry-level wines did not excite, but the premium range showed real quality and depth.
