Idiom Restaurant & Idiom Wine Tasting Centre
You visit Idiom Wine Farm for wine tastings, meals overlooking False Bay, and safaris through vineyards where zebra and springbok graze. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Thursdays and Fridays, with views stretching from the Helderberg mountains to Cape Point. The wine list includes single varietals and blends from twenty different grapes grown on the property.
The vineyard safaris take you through fynbos and past game animals like zebra, springbok, and bontebok. The safaris last two hours and can be paired with lunch at the restaurant. The dining room has floor-to-ceiling windows facing the bay, and the terraces catch the afternoon sun.
The wine tasting center offers six different tasting experiences, from single varietals to paired canapés. The building mixes stone arches with modern design, set on a slope above the vineyards. The grapes grow in decomposed granite soils at elevations between two hundred and three hundred and fifty meters, with the sea wind keeping the berries small and concentrated.
The farm is reached by a brick road past fields where game sometimes grazes. You sign in at the gate before driving up to the tasting center.
