And what a gorgeous place we had before our eyes, set atop the Helshoogte Pass. #### More South African / Western Cape Wineries reviews: **In alphabetical order:* - [****Asara**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/south-africa-wineries-asara-wine-estate-hotel-in/) - [****Babylonstoren**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/babylonstoren-cape-winelands/) - [****Delaire Graff**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/wine-tasting-at-delaire-graff-south-africa/) - [****Fairview**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/fairview-wine-cheese-cape-town-review/) - Groot Constantia - Haute Cabrière - [****Le Lude**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/south-africa-afternoon-tea-at-le-lude-estate-franschhoek-cape-town/) - [****Leeu Estates**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/south-africa-la-petite-colombe-at-leeu-estate-in-franschhoek-cape-town/) - [****Maison**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/south-africa-lunch-at-chefs-warehouse-maison-cape-town/) - [****Mont Rochelle**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/our-stay-at-mont-rochelle-in-franschhoek/) - [****Tokara Wine Estate**](https://www.thesignaturejess.com/tokara-winery-stellenbosch-cape-town-review/) This place was conceived with the most exquisite attention to detail, from the stones, the materials, the sounds, the sculptures, the furniture, the orientation. It takes ones' breath away as soon as we leave the car behind. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-2.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-3.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-6.jpg) **Delaire Graff lobby and decor* We had a tight schedule for the day so we jumped right into the wine tasting experience firstly in their gorgeous Wine Lounge, that was empty. It made for a very private experience where all the attention was on us. Love it! ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-7.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-8.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-9.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-5-1.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/58/67/5867d415-55cd-4f42-962a-67b9b6110b2c/content/images/2025/06/delaire-graff-stellenbosch-wine-estate-4-1.jpg) ### Wine Tasting at the interior Wine Lounge: - **Delaire Graff Sunrise Brut Méthode Cap Classique** \- *loved it!
