If you’re cruising through the Western Cape and want a relaxed, “wow, look at that view” kind of stop, Keermont is exactly the spot. Perched on the northern slopes of the Simonsberg outside Stellenbosch, this boutique, family-run winery greets visitors with sweeping panoramas across the valley and the surrounding winelands. It’s the kind of place where the scenery and the wine feel like they were made for a memorable afternoon.
The drive up to the estate winds gently past vineyards and rugged little hills, with the architecture that blends old stone charm and contemporary touches. Once you arrive, you’re treated to a tasting experience that’s personal and unfussy—perfect for lingering a little longer and soaking in the atmosphere. Keermont focuses on expressing terroir, so you’ll notice wines that feel grounded in the land, with a range that covers lighter whites through to more robust reds.
Tasting at Keermont is often paired with the setting: a bright, sunlit tasting room or a shaded veranda where you can sip while admiring the valley below. The wines are crafted to reflect the hills and soils of the estate, and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, ready to guide you through the portfolio and share a few stories about the farm and its methods. It’s a great place to pair a glass with a light bite, or simply sit and soak in the scenery as the day unfolds.
Plan your visit as part of a larger Stellenbosch day, because the area is ripe with wine paths, mountain views, and charming towns. From Cape Town, it’s a pleasant drive of about an hour or so, depending on traffic, and you’ll likely want 1–2 hours here to truly unwind. Bring a camera for the hillside light, and consider pairing your Keermont stop with a few other estates in the Simonsberg corridor for a perfect taste of the Western Cape wine country.
