Event information
The Cape Point Vineyards Picnic experience is a sensory journey that combines the pleasures of gourmet dining with the natural beauty of the Western Cape in South Africa. Nestled on the picturesque slopes of the Cape Peninsula, this vineyard offers a unique outdoor dining experience that captivates the senses.
Guests are invited to relax on the expansive lawns surrounded by rolling vineyards, with the majestic Atlantic Ocean as a backdrop. The picnic offerings are a culinary delight, featuring a carefully curated selection of artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, freshly baked bread, and decadent desserts. The picnic baskets are thoughtfully designed to complement the estate's exquisite wines, showcasing the region's unique terroir.
The beautifully arranged picnic baskets typically include:
Bobotie wraps – the mince filling made with local spices and veggies
Curried chicken and grape salad – to be scooped onto your awaiting breads
Couscous salad
Freshly baked ciabatta and crackers
A selection of charcuterie and salami
Pickled peppadews, olives and sundried tomatoes
Potted chicken liver and bacon pâté
Roasted aubergine with hummus and toasted cashew nuts
Local cheeses with caramelised onions – we couldn’t get enough of these
Seasonal fruit salad
Koeksisters – a delicious kind of local doughnut, glazed in finger-sticking syrup
In addition, it comes with a picnic blanket and two prism-shaped cushions that can be utilized as resting places to take in the views of the vineyard, mountains, and sea. The vineyard's famous wine range is also added to the arrangement on top of the exquisite delectables. The critically acclaimed Sauvignon Blanc, Noordhoek Sav Blanc and the Chardonnay are some of the top range wines that you have the option of including in your basket to elevate an already memorable experience.
The esteemed picnics are served from 12pm to 4pm with the exception of Thursdays. The picnics are priced at R400 per person. The kid's basket is R70 and a vegetarian option is available
