This beautiful wine estate has it all. Beautiful views, great wine, romantic accommodation and delicious classy food. We stayed in the Homestead for a weekend and it was quiet, comfortable, very tastefully decorated and offered the most amazing morning and evening views from the bedroom. It is on the expensive side. But well worth it. Spoil yourself. Well most certainly be back.

Love this place. Best value for money when it comes to wine tasting. Staff are friendly and on the ball. Their charcuterie board is the best in the winelands.

The food was unparalleled. I love kitchens that are brave enough to experiment with explosions of flavours in the mouth, as opposed to staying safe and playing simple. A pleasant surprise indeed.

We just came back from an exceptional wine tasting at Dornier Wine Estate. Beautiful setting and well worth the drive. I am a red wine lover and if you are too the wines that stood out for me was the Malbec, Cab/Merlot blend and Merlot. Very tasteful wines and prices are not over inflated either. I must say their dessert wine is incredible as well.The cherry on the cake was our sommelier Bell. He made the experience very memorable by being an excellent host.Well done Dornier. You will see us again.

What a shocking experience compared to what you can get in the rest of stellenbosch. Spend about R400 on drinking wine but when asking for water it’s not possible for the young arrogant staff to organize this. Pretty slap dash experience and disappointing experience. Sad after supporting this farm for so many years...

We held our wedding here and rented the Homestead for three nights. Coming from abroad we had a lot to do in order to get things set up and prepared. Thankfully Lianndi (The Manager/Coordinator) had stepped in and coordinated with vendors to ensure everything ran smoothly and looked incredible!Although the homestead was older, it was an authentic, relaxing experience with amazing staff who ensured we had everything we needed.A very underrated venue with astounding views for a wedding and incredible scenery for photos. The food was absolutely delicious and did not disappoint. All our food, cake and even macaroons were provided for by the restaurant and nothing disappointed. Thanks to all the staff for making this such an easy, stress-free experience!

The wine and lunch here is fantastic! I would return for both the wine tasting and restaurant. I also stayed at the homestead but was not impressed by this. The rooms were below average, no one to check you in on arrival and VERY hot and stuffy as no air con. Also no staff or security around so it doesnt feel particularly safe.

Great family friendly place in a very beautiful and peaceful spot in Stellenbosch. Obviously with great wines on the very reasonably priced menue but besides that also very interesting selection of local beers. Always worth a lunch stop over!

Top winery, architecture at its finest, well maintained, the wines terrific, the food not quite to our taste. Still 5 stars.

Review №48

A more modern wine estate than the others in the region. We were very well attended at wine tasting by a guy who deserves 5 ⭐️ (he served 5 tables while his colleague attended 1). The wines are good, but they didnt do my style so much, so 4 ⭐️

Since Cape Town this wine route is wonderful, and their wines what a treat. In France we have good wines but here they are also really good. Since then, I have never failed to buy some at a party or a special occasion.

Were eating again today in the restaurant as all the years before. there was no bread this year ahead which Karl-Heinz so praised. The menu has become smaller.5 x quiche, as an appetizer, two salads. Missed the Mussels. The service was poor this year. Will this restaurant shun zukünftigt. Too bad.

Review №53

Food and wine very good!However, we got a terrible room this year and changed our accommodation after the first night.What I would like to emphasize, however, is that the hotel manager didnt even charge us for the night we slept there - Im only rating the overnight stay, not the food and wine (which is excellent), the 3 stars are there due to the very competent and friendly manager.(it only refers to the Dornier accommodation, not to the new rooms / guesthouse in Mont Angelis)
