Sustained by wine at Jordan Wine Estate

Perfect early autumn day in Stellenbosch meets Jordan wines and hospitality = perfection.

In the middle of the busy harvest season, it's easy to see that the Jordan team lives and breathes wine. They work hard and play hard, with new toys in the cellar to keep innovating and create new special wines. On Thursday 2 March, we got a behind-the-scenes view of the magic happening in the cellar that helped feed our wine geek souls.

If you don't need to know the intricacies of winemaking from the vineyards to getting it into the bottle, Jordan is still a special place. You are sure to experience their warm welcome and enjoy their beautiful setting from the deck, overlooking the dam.

Highlights of the day

  • Tasting their Assyrtiko, a great summer wine!
  • The Timepiece range - both the Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc are exceptional wines. These old vine wines capture the heritage of the vineyards and the Jordan family beautifully. We properly swooned over the Sauvignon Blanc.
  • Seeing their new concrete egg fermenters. Who knew that concrete eggs could be so aesthetically pleasing?

Plan your visit to Jordan Wine Estate - choose between wine tasting, lunch at the Cellar Door, or their popular picnics.
