Waterford Estate is situated in the picturesque Blaauwklippen Valley in Stellenbosch, with vineyards planted on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain. The Helderberg Mountain range is the closet range to the ocean, this has a significant influence on our wines. The cooling effect of the ocean brings freshness and the warmth of Stellenbosch adds richness to our wines. The Estate’s building visually impacts on a seamless whole, which complements the surrounding natural beauty of the farm. The Waterford Estate winery offers a relaxing setting (voted the Best Cellar Door Experience in 2021 by Tim Atkin) where guests can sit and enjoy various tasting options as well as a delicious meal at SALT Restaurant. With the wine cellar built surrounding the courtyard, guests can observe the workings of the winery, and get a true feel for the wine making process with disrupting the tranquillity of their tasting experience.

Visits and tours by appointment only, Tues- Sat. TO ENTER AN ARTIST’S GARDEN IS TO VISIT ANOTHER WORLD. The Dylan Lewis Sculpture Garden is a place of expansive vistas, scents and the sounds of nature, with tranquil groves, hidden paths and lush indigenous vegetation. The project began serendipitously in 2009 when Lewis hired an excavator on a whim and began shaping the contours of what would become the seven-hectare sculpture garden. Today, the artist continues to explore themes integral to his work in this serene landscape on the slopes of the Stellenbosch Mountain looking out over vineyards towards the ocean.
