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.

There are dinners—and then there are experiences. Nederburg’s Dinner of Discovery series returns in 2025 with a bold new chapter, inviting guests on an unforgettable exploratory journey of taste, storytelling, and sensory wonder. Set across the expansive and evocative grounds of the historic Nederburg estate in Paarl, this year’s series is centered around curiosity, connection, and culinary exploration.
Inspired by Nederburg’s reputation as South Africa’s most globally travelled wine brand, this year’s edition embraces the spirit of exploration. Curated under the inspired direction of Head Chef Linda Trautmann, the 2025 edition dares guests to—to wander off the beaten path and discover food and wine in places where stories live, shadows dance, and flavours come alive.
This is not a traditional dining experience. Dinner of Discovery invites guests to dine in the unexpected—spaces that transform into stages for immersive, atmospheric storytelling. Without revealing too much, expect an unfolding of the evening—each course a new chapter, each location a new scene. It’s intimate, immersive, and ever-evolving.
Chef Linda’s menu, exclusive to the series, draws inspiration from memory, landscape, and emotion. Using seasonal produce sourced close to home, she creates thought-provoking dishes that evoke warmth, nostalgia, and surprise—each one paired to perfection with Nederburg’s award-winning wines.
Whether it’s the smokiness of an open fire, the richness of a slow-cooked sauce, or the unexpected crunch of something foraged, every flavour is meant to delight the senses and spark conversation.
"Dinner of Discovery is our way of extending what Nederburg represents beyond the tasting room and into the realm of memory and imagination," says Kate Jackson, Nederburg’s General Manager. “It’s not just a food and wine event—it’s a celebration of storytelling, of place, and of the people who bring it to life. We want our guests to walk away with more than a meal—we want them to leave with a sense of wonder.”
