Creation
Hemel-en-Aarde, South Africa
- #3 World's Best Vineyards 2024
- The Best Vineyard in Africa 2024
A young and ecologically minded winery in a location that fittingly translates as “heaven and earth”, not far from Cape Town. Stay in the self-catering, solar-powered Voormanshuis cottage where, as the estate’s only overnight guests, you can enjoy a braai and wake up in total peace amid the mountainous scenery. During the daytime, hiking and biking trails get you up close and personal with the shrub-like fynbos vegetation particular to the Cape. Back at base, the grounds are speckled with local artwork and the winery offers an array of food and wine matching options, chocolate pairings and the signature ‘Story of Creation’ dining experienc.e
