Description
In a setting of unsurpassed tranquillity is the Historic Manor house which has been converted into our delightful country style restaurant. Elegant country fare is served in a friendly relaxed atmosphere. The A La Carte menu changes seasonally, perfectly complimenting the wines of the Estate. The Restaurant is open seven days a week for breakfast lunch and dinner. Situated on the Stellenbosch Wine Route, Zevenwacht Estate has strong viticultural roots penetrating deep into the historic past of South Africa. The land known as Langverwacht (Long Awaited) was granted to Jean le Roux of Normandy, one of the first French Huguenot wine farmers who fled from France in 1688. Pieter de Waal, owner from 1798, extended the vineyards through the purchase of the neighbouring property Zevenfontein (Seven Springs). Divided when de Waal sold Langverwacht to his son, Adrian, the two farms again became a single property in 1978, united under the new name of Zevenwacht. Interpreted, perhaps, as Seven Expectations, the name exemplifies the abundant delights that await visitors to the Zevenwacht Wine Estate.
