What a bizarre experience, didn’t like it at all! Kind of old-style, wooden cheapish looking tasting room with incorporated curio shop. Although the only guests, the tasting lady didn’t want to speak to us, even questions she answered only with a few words. Was awkward. Wines are cheap and easy drinking, nothing special.

The most bizarre aspect of the farm is certainly the Lion Park in the back of the garden, in the middle of the vineyards. “WTF?” was the only thing I could think of when I saw that! The white lions are kept in small cages, the cubs are separated early from the parents and kept separately. The sides of the cages are covered with white sheets, apparently to shield the lions from all the movement around them, so to view the lions you have to look through small openings in these sheets. This whole scene is so surreal and saddening that I can only discourage from entering the lion park.

Average wines and not much can be said about them except that they are cheap but what tthey lack in quality and character is made up by the warmth and friendliness of the lady who gave us a tasting.
Very friendly and informative and we felt like we were home and did not want to leave.

I visited Vredenheim a year ago and boy have they made some changes! They are definitely catering for a bigger market now with two new restaurants and a new tasting room. They even have a curio shop now as well. The wine list did not change much. The wine is easy drinking and cheap. They do not export their wine and it’s also not for sale at retail shops.

Our host Susan Viljoen was friendly and informative. We met a few regulars that visit the farm often for a quick tasting and chat. Vredenheim has a relaxed and informal atmosphere, so if you are looking for affordable easy drinking wine this is the place to visit.
