Estate vegan wines and sushi in Robertsvlei Valley

About

GlenWood Vineyards is a winery in Franschhoek located along Robertsvlei Road. We acquired the property in 1984 and produce a range of vegan wines, with Chardonnay serving as our flagship cultivar. Our tasting room and sushi restaurant operate on a shaded oak tree terrace overlooking the surrounding vineyards and mountains. We host guided wine tastings alongside a sushi menu prepared by our sushi chef. Guests can also book our Nature's Window tour, taking a walk or drive through indigenous Cape fynbos to reach our mountain tasting venue above the Robertsvlei Valley. We are closed on Mondays.

Great wine tasting experience. Bongs (without the muscles 💪) did an excellent job. Even accommodating our 6 year old with her soft drink and water tasting. She felt included. The whole experience was top class. The sushi 🍣 oh my, something worth a try. This is the place- should you wish for a quiet calm and serene environment. Highly recommended 👌. Bongs !!! You are a star 🌟

Amazing experience. Best wine tasting experience we have ever had. Come here to get some superb wines, but you will meet people like Chris and Foster...who took us on a journey of delight. It was 100% memorable.

Beautiful place, delicious Chardonnay and very friendly staff. Service is good too, but a bit odd and uncomfortable to be asked to sit at a different place to eat. We had to move two steps away to eat because we were not allowed to eat at the same table we do wine tasting 🤔

We had the best time at Glenwood, I think your Chardonnay is the best I’ve ever tasted. Secondly Bongs who took the time to explain everything was absolutely brilliant. We didn’t have the Sushi as we were going for lunch elsewhere but next time I will definitely try it.

Just finished the Home of Chardonnay tasting experience with a sushi platter and I can honestly say that this is one of the most incredible hidden gems in the Franschoek valley. Every single staff member made us feel welcome right from the parking area. They gave us a guided tour, huge amounts of history and information and honestly one of the best experiences in the world ! Comes highly highly recommended and would definitely visit every time im in the Cape.
