At De Wingerdt Restaurant you will find fresh local fare with a touch of flavours from around the globe. For a more exotic experience, we offer dishes inspired by flavours from Europe, the Mediterranean, Asia and North Africa. No matter what you choose, it will be made on-site from fresh, authentic, quality ingredients. Our cuisine is preservative-free, and we use fresh herbs and produce from our organic garden beds. As part of our offerings, we produce and bottle our own "Aan't Vette" wines on the De Doornkraal Wine Estate. Take the opportunity to taste our award-winning Syrah Blanc de Noir wine named Aan’t Vette 1st Divine Blush 2011. Our first red wine, the 2011 Aan’t Vette Syrah, is still testing in small Frensh oak barrels, but will soon be available for tasting. The wine estate strictly follows a strategy utilising only environmentally friendly farming practices. No artificial pesticidies or herbicides are allowed in the proximity of the De Doornkraal Wine Estate. Spraying of the vineyard is done manually and only organic substances are used. These fine wines are born on the banks of the Vette River in the single-block Syrah vineyard of the De Doornkraal Wine Estate on land originally proclaimed for divine worship in 1838.
