Wine Tasting at Jason's Hill


One of the nicest wine estates and bistros in our area is at Jason's Hill in the Slanghoek Valley. The views are spectacular, the wines are exceptional, and the food is wonderful.

Amanda often goes wine tasting with us. Some places are more kid friendly than others and Jason's Hill has a playground and birds in small aviaries to look at. Amanda also enjoyed a hot chocolate in the bistro upstairs while we were downstairs trying a few of the multi-award winning wines by one of South Africa's pioneer female winemakers, Ivy Du Toit.

Yes, that is something we keep in mind. ;)
In our wine region most of the wine estates still don't charge anything for tasting wine, even if you don't buy their wine.
Take care!
A beautiful day at the vineyard

The wine does sound wonderful! I can't have any alcohol until way after my sinus surgery coming on up late June. I love wine.

Aww, that's too bad. Wishing you a good operation and quick recovery.
I enjoyed the photos. The bunny and the 4-year-old were cute. That was sweet of Mica to offer back rides. Poor Isaak! I'm glad it wasn't worse.
By the way, I can go without wine. Sometimes I just want to drink Coke. ;)
Your photos are lovely. Thank you for sharing your experience with my Fine-Whatever link up.
