THE HEART OF THE CAPE WINELANDS

During winter, the cellar at Val du Charron with its dramatic catwalks and steel tanks becomes our Theatre. Our “Theatre of Wine” tasting experience consists of Three Acts featuring The Black Countess (our professional actress) and Sommelier, Stephen Taylor.Once Stephen has explained to our guests the character of each of these blends, The Countess delivers the stories behind the names of each wine dressed in her full Victorian garb. With visitors to our tasting room, coach groups and four and five star guests, the concept has been so successful that our scripts are now translated in to French, Italian, German and Flemish. The Theatre can also be arranged for private functions, allowing guests to dress up too.
