While the Garden Route is best known for its forests, beaches and outdoor attractions, the region is also home to a growing number of wine farms and boutique wineries. Find 17 vineyards around Plettenberg Bay, The Crags, George and the Outeniqua region that benefit from a mild coastal climate that helps produce a variety of quality wines, including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Méthode Cap Classique sparkling wines.

Many of the region’s wine estates offer tastings, cellar tours, restaurants and scenic vineyard settings, making them popular stops for both visitors and locals. Browse our list of Garden Route wine farms below, or learn more about the story of wine-making in the Western Cape.
