Good food, garden views and a glass of something pink.

Join us at Weltevreden Estate for a leisurely meal at our restaurant and discover the beautiful flavours of Bertha W**es.

Our much-loved Bertha Rosé is a favourite for good reason. Notes of wild strawberry, watermelon and pomegranate, with a delicate hint of rosewater and a fresh, dry finish, make it a lovely companion to a relaxed lunch.

Gather your favourite people, take a seat and savour a little Stellenbosch hospitality. We look forward to welcoming you! 🤍
