Tucked away against the majestic slopes of the Helderberg Mountains in the heart of the Stellenbosch winelands, Peter Falke Wines is where elegance meets relaxation. This idyllic estate invites you to slow down, savour exceptional wines and soak up the tranquil beauty of its stunning surroundings. It’s a perfect blend of sophistication and laid-back charm.
Dating back to the 18th century, the traditional gabled Cape Dutch buildings of the wine estate belie a contrasting modernity within. The stately old homestead is partnered by a “boutique” winery, contemporary wine tasting room and luxurious outdoor lounge which have established Peter Falke Wines as the most elegant and serene sundowner retreat in the winelands.
The estate greets you with a blend of sophisticated elegance and laid-back ease. Think sun-drenched terraces, vibrant bougainvillaea cascading over whitewashed walls with a backdrop of rolling vineyards that stretch as far as the eye can see.
Peter Falke’s wines offer a variety of indulgent options, from crisp whites and bold reds to their signature ruby rosé that seems tailor-made for a warm South African afternoon. One can also enjoy a delicious cheese platter outside while soaking up the panoramic views while pairing a creamy cheese with a glass of wine.
Imagine a late afternoon spent lounging on plush outdoor sofas, a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc in hand, while the golden hues of the setting sun bathe the vineyard in a warm glow. It’s the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to pause and bottle the moment, much like the wines themselves.
The aesthetic is modern yet effortlessly timeless. The estate’s tasting room is a fusion of contemporary design and rustic touches, complete with pops of vibrant red.
