We visited for the winemaker's lunch on a hot and busy day in the Cape Winelands. We started off with a tasting of the Estate's wines, which was expertly conducted by our server. Different to other wine farms in the region, Rust en Vrede invites...you to taste their best wines - even from different vintages -, some of which are truly world class. The lunch is simple, but of high quality, and exactly what you need on an intensive day of wine tasting. Value for money was very good, as lunch and wine tasting were both deducted from our order of wine bottles.
2 pro tips to end this review: First, come early, as there are no reservations and in high season most tables on the lovely terrace will be taken around noon. Second, if it is 37 degrees centigrade during your outdoors lunch and wine tasting, refrain from tasting several additional red wines the service might recommend you. Or you might end up taking a siesta on the wine farm's lawn, unable to move on to the next winery ;-)More
