Nice little town with a fantastic winery. Bought the legendary Boplaas wisky.

Lovely quiet and comfortable! And the sweetest boxer girl to wish you welcome!

Was able to take our doggo along and try out some lovely Portuguese varietal based wines and spirits. So much to choose from. Ended up walking away with a lovely 5 year brandy and award winning whiskey. Well worth a visit when in the area.

Nice winery. Very nice products.

Have not been here for a while but still one of the best wine tasting experiences you can find. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Try the whiskeys next good

Always a pleasure to stop and stock up at this exceptional farm. Award-winning products. We love the gin and whisky (6y), and today were introduced to the 8y, which found a way to the boot too.See you again 😁

My favourite port and great time here for a tasting and a tour. Enjoyed the town and the people - certainly will be drinking Boplaas Port for life.

Free tasting, knowledgeable friendly host. Massive range of wines to taste and buy at good prices. Now also has a restaurant that is open every day, pizzas, bobotie, pies, snack platters overlooking vineyards. A must visit in Calitzdorp.

The tasting experience was incredible with so much to choose from! World class!

Amazing wines. Careless Nel Brandy a must to try Delicious! Sip with ice! Delicious!

Boplaas Winery is were I work every day so Im happy to working there

Still my favourite estate. The port, wine, whisky, gin - where do you start ? Everything is unbelievable. And the delivery service is fantastic.

Not my first trip to Boplaas, most importantly, will definitively not be my last.Made arrangements several months in advance with Daniel Nel via social media following recent well deserved whisky awards to visit the distillery and discus his plans for the future and what we can look forward to in the coming year.Come the morning, Daniel made some time available in his busy schedule with brandy and gin bottling. A very hands on family operation which is fantastic to see, renovations on the go for tastings as well, looking forward to seeing the end result in my next visit.Saw the old original potstill from his grandfathers days, a still made in Wellington in a bygone era, the farm has a very long history in producing award winning brandies, wines, ports and sherries, of late, these include gin and whisky. Most grateful that we had the opportunity to discuss the process and hear what is in the pipeline. Very excited and looking forward to the coming releases in 2021.Back in the tasting room, the air-conditioned environment was most welcome considering the heat outside. A rather large selection of wines available, some very interesting varietals there, including the ports and sherries, including the Cape Tawny Casks which is one of Daniels favourites for imparting unique and delectable flavours to the Boplaas Whisky.Had delightful banter with the team behind the counter, impressed with the overall product knowledge across the entire range.Must confess, walked away a little poorer, but all the richer for the engagement and the bottles for the evenings to come.Highly recommend you make a plan to visit, invariably something for any occasion and/or palate.

Very nice brandy and whiskey

Ordered and within few days it was delivered free of charge. Your wine and port is FANTASTIC! Thank you

Good value for money if you try the platter to share

Ordered wine from them. Love love love boplaas. My new favorite wine as I am a wine fanatic. Just wish they had stock of the Red Muscadelle. Annarie handled my order and i am super impressed with her. Would recommend this winery as their wine is incredible.

They are missing out big time. The lady behind the counter is extremely unprofessional and off-putting. After seeing signs for best whiskey and port we were very interested in a tasting and would have bought substantial amounts of product. From photos it looks like previously there was a real tasting, but sadly when we were there the lady stuffed a list in our hands and told us to pick. We had no idea what was good. We said we were interested in the whiskey and port so she gave us a single glass with a tiny sip of whiskey we had to share. We asked of this was the award winning one and she said no. No help or information was provided. She again gave a single sip from the same glass for me and my wife. We decided to leave and were charged a ridiculous R50 for our horrible experience. We ended up buying nothing because of the lack of service and any structure to the tasting. You are doing your great products a massive disservice. Go see how James Sedgwick distillery does it. We walked out of there with thousands of bucks worth of stuff, had a GREAT experience, learned a lot, and were given big samples and our own glasses to taste from!

A definite stop for award winning Port

Lovely wines and was taught to drink brandy with white grape juice.... Really then taste great. Enjoyed it!

Another awful experience from the woman behind the counter at the tasting room. We had misjudged the timing of getting to Boplaas and after 6 hours of driving arrived at 4.40, 20 minutes prior to them closing. I had been many times with my late husband and son and now my other son from New York was so keen to visit as hes a lover of good brandy. Well she was obviously keen to get out, was patronising and rude and told me when I requested to try some of their wine that it was too late and then when I wanted to buy a special bottle of wine as a gift for a family member and asked if I could try a little was arrogantly told that because I had had a sip of their port that my pallet would not appreciate their wine!I am very cognisant of how hard a time the liquor industry have had and as a family who enjoys South African wines we really want to show support now that we can. I accept we were a little late but we were met with a very bad attitude. We out before 5, my son having bought some very expensive brandy which frankly I begrudged. I will not be revisiting.

Big selection of wines, potstill brandies and fortified wines

Best Port in South Africa. The wine tasting was great and the staff was very helpful and friendlyWe had a great experience.

An amazing selection of wines, with gin and whiskey thrown in... A most stop if youre in the area

Was a little busy but we were able to purchase what we needed

I have visited Boplaas various times over the years and have always had a good experience there. They have a large variety of wines and potstill distilled spirits and a good sampling of Portuguese style wines. Their Port is consistently some of the best produced in South Africa and well worth a try. The Stoepsit Restaurant is a relatively recent addition and we have had some great kuiers there. The Stoepsit Sauvignon Blanc goes down a treat with their wood fired Pizzas. They also have a tasting room next to the N2 outside of Klein Brak River. Boplaas is a true family wine farm with the owner Carel Nel and all his children involved in the business. Well worth a visit.

Awesome and amazing prices, very friendly people

Cheerful staff a worthwhile visit

Very friendly and efficient

Best Brandy an Whiskey a must stop. friendly staff

Cold and impersonal.

Boplaas was most refreshing, assistance provide by Thea Meyer at the tasting was great, as were the prices. We left with quite a couple of cases. We were rather disappointed (but not surprised) that the Ring of Rocks was out of stock (IMHO one of their best wines), but we were given the remains (90%) of the bottle which was opened for us, which we quaffed on the Outeniqua pass en-route to George. Will definitely sign up for their wine club! Excellent value, some great memories, many thanks Thea!

Rude awful lady behind the tasting bar

Outstanding wines and port

Great wine and whiskey. Pity no more food but best stick to what one knows...

The port is great and so are the spirits, but its the amazing wines made with port varieties that you have to try. A family business with a long long history in this valley and in South African wine. Have a meal at the bistro too.

Bit overated. No personal service. Wine average. Far better wineries in the area

The service of the old lady that serves the wine was vertualy zero. If you did not stand at the counter, she ignored you and gave no info about the wines. I will NEVER go back again

Always an amazing winefarm with such incredible wines and fortified wines. Absolutely love their Gamaka family y reserve. Plus these days they produce gin as well...their London dry style gin is incredible.. A craft gin well worth buying.

Very commercial and impersonal. The smaller wine estates in this area are a far better option for personalised and friendly service.

If you like port, this is the place to go. They have tastings going back ten years at least. You need to have a designated driver to visit this place. Highly recommended.

We stopped by Boplaas for a port tasting. Each of our samples was great, and we ended up getting a bottle of the tawny.

Very professional in a casual setting and well informed host. We learned a lot about the wine, gin and brandy, from the temperatures the grapes grow in, to harvesting, and bottling. A must visit!

This cellar should be a definite stop if you are in the area. They have a wide selection port, brandy and wine for you to taste and buy. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed the visit.

We have received many shipments from Bopaas over the last few years and always so efficiently executed.Thank you.But nothing was such a pleasure as to find your little packet of dried grapes in our carton this month.They are exquisite!!Your are darlings.We may even order more wine….Love from smokey Jozi!

Really good food and drinks. The blue cheese & fig burgerwas great!

Great Port, Muskadel, Cape Ruby and dry red wine blend called Ring of rocks.

Bo Plaas Wine Cellar is another must visit winery in Calitzdorp, they have excellent wines, ports, gins, whiskies and brandies. For foodies traditional Karoo meals are on offer from the restaurant. If you time your visit during the harvesting season you may be able to see truck loads of specific grapes being crushed. There are play areas outside for your children, in summary a visit to this winery is highly recommended.

Do NOT drive past without stopping for a tasting.

Restaurant and wine tasting. Excellent!

Still the best, since 1880 and it has only improved.

Wortha visit and purchase top wined

An absolutely worthwhile experience. Try the wines, ports, dessert wines, Brandy, Gins and my personal favourite Whisky tastings in the peaceful and quite Calitzdorp or sit in the stoepsit bistro enjoying a variety of food and a bottle of the stoepsit while soaking in the beauty of the winelands.

Delicious 8 year old Brandy

Delightful setting and Lovely service.

Friendly speedy service, estate quality tasting wines at low prices!

We are neighbours. Our annex balcony rooms overlook some of their vineyards. Our favourite wines are the popular Stoepsit Sauvignon Blanc and the Pinot Noir sparkling wine which we use to celebrate with our guests.

Helpful and a great range of wines.

Excellant Port Wine

Great and friendly experience

Disappointing and very average!Come on guys!

Friendly staff go back again and again.

Excellent port.

Did a brandy tasting and just had to get me a bottle.

A must visit place

Friendly and copious wine/port/brandy tasting.

Worth a stop when going through Calitzdorp

Friendly people

Five star and friendly service! Thank you Thea, we had a great picnic!

I ordered wine and am very impressed with the good service I received .... thank you Boplaas and Aramex for great service

So ends a long-standing tradition ... you new ladies behind the counter create a very unprofessional impression. It does your burning very badly. I will make it a point to never support Boplaas wines again. What a bad experience! Bring back the previous ladies!

Thank you Boplaas it was so nice to taste your wine, brandy, and gin

Can see there is effort. They especially left the place open for us later.

Fortunately the port is good but very poor reception, clearly said in front of us that the French did not understand anything what we told them, that our level of English is low especially as the accent in the region is pronounced! So if you are French, look elsewhere or put grandma back in place!

Delicious port and also the food in the bistro was good

Best brandy

Yummy wine!
