13th February 2025 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
|Recurring Event (See all)

An event every day that begins at 9:00 am, repeating until 15th February 2025

Experience winemaking as it was practised before the turn of the 19th century. Our trusty mules, Antjie and Saartjie, transport grapes to Soetmelksvlei where guests destem and sort bunches by hand before they get stomping to extract the juice! It’s messy work, please dress accordingly. Once pressed, the grape juice is transferred to fermentation tanks in the distillery. Followed by a hearty harvest table lunch featuring heritage dishes from the Cape Winelands.

Arrive: 09h15 at Babylonstoren Ticket Office (add 15 min to your travel time due to road works in the areas)

Fee includes Babylonstoren Membership, transport to Soetmelksvlei, harvest activity and harvest table lunch at Old Stables Restaurant
