Best of Wine: Van Loveren Family Vineyards

Loading player...
Van Loveren has been in the Retief family since 1937 when Hennie Retief acquired the land in the Robertson Valley and named it after Christina van Loveren, an ancestor of his new bride, Jean van Zyl. Today, Van Loveren is SA’s largest family-owned winery producing several well-loved brands.

Spend the day partaking in fun-filled food and wine pairings that include a non-alcoholic tasting platter and enjoy a leisurely lunch at Christina’s bistro; or go walking in the historic garden, birding, hiking and biking along well-planned MTB routes.
