Taste, Learn & Discover at Nederburg’s The Manor
Come to The Manor restaurant at Nederburg in Paarl, and be enticed by fragrances of cinnamon, star anise, cardamom, fresh ginger, rooibos, buchu and roasted nuts. Or wafts of real classics like home-baked bread just out of the oven, toasted coriander seed, ripe tomato, basil, caramelised onion, pickled vegetables, and chips on the fry. In other words, an inviting amalgam of Eastern, Mediterranean, and local aromas to suit a whole lot of palates.
To enter the tranquillity of the thatched-roofed, white-washed, H-shaped manor house, dating to 1800, is to experience a distillation of life lived over 200 years ago. Yet, the tastes on offer are contemporary, devised to complement Nederburg’s extensive range of award-winning wines.
Generous picnics for relaxed enjoyment in the sprawling garden are on offer, as are delicious breakfasts, lunches and mouth-watering cheese and charcuterie platters. Many à la carte menu items are imaginative updates on long-time favourites.
The gorgeous bar serves up award-winning wines, innovative cocktails (including non-alcoholic options), as well as delicious coffees.
Various wine tasting options are available to help you discover Nederburg’s fine wines. The Manor Tasting includes five wines (the selection changes weekly), the Seriously Cheesy pairing comprises five wines paired with five artisanal cheeses, and The Brew Tasting offers you the chance to enjoy various coffee blends with different wines. Then there’s the popular Five Senses Wine & Food Experience, devised to indulge your senses and challenge your perception of flavour.
The Manor’s team understands that children need fun activities of their own when their parents visit for wine-tasting. So apart from the milk and cookie pairings, they offer cupcake decoration workshops, picnic boxes with a delicious collection of snacks you’d be happy to see them eating and drinking. And for birthday parties for six or more, they offer party surprise boxes plus a cupcake decoration workshop. There’s also Jenga and a range of lawn games, jungle gyms and a zip-line, tree house, swings and more.
Get in touch with the team to make your reservation. Pre-booking is essential in most instances.

A unique multi-sensory dinner experience.
From blind tasting to secret locations, Nederburg encourages you to explore.
The Paarl winery’s immersive Dinner of Discovery series is taking wine lovers on an exhilarating sensory adventure, and it’s been a runaway success. The June and July editions were fully booked within days of being announced, and limited tickets now remain for the remaining dates in August and September.
Presented under the bold and imaginative theme of “The African Table”, this year’s edition explores the flavours, fragrances, sounds, textures and stories of the continent through curated menus and paired Nederburg wines, all brought to life across unexpected locations on the farm.
But this isn’t your standard dinner and wine pairing.
Think blindfolds. Mystery wines. Unexpected aromas. Music that shifts your perception. A table in a place you can’t even imagine.
The journey begins the moment you arrive. A glass of award-winning wine is placed in your hand, but without your sense of sight, will you know if it’s red or white? When that visual cue is removed, your focus sharpens. Aromas bloom, textures come alive, flavours unfold in surprising ways.
You swirl. You sip. You taste differently. You feel differently. Suddenly, wine becomes a playground for the senses.
This is the heart of Nederburg’s Yours to Explore philosophy: wine as experience, discovery and connection.
Says Nederburg general manager, Kate Jackson, “The event ties in with our brand promise that there’s a table waiting for you in places you can't even imagine. Not just physical places, but also imagined ones, where your senses are fully alive. In the end, wine is a feeling, a memory, a pleasure that connects us to each other and ourselves. We want guests to apply all their senses when they visit us. To be present. To play. And to discover something memorable.”
