Leave this one for the tourists, then drive past and go straight to Meerlust.
Need to make better quality wines available to every body.
Although commercial; still a nice Yuppie-like nice atmosphere.
Catering just for tourists. Much better winefarms to visit and enjoy. Cheetahs are nice.
Affordable wines and a lovely setting. Good option for picnic fans. Lots to see and do for families too
Overpriced, over-commercial tourist trap. Not very friendly at all. The only redeeming point is the Moya restaurant.
Nice leopard conservancy, ok ish wines
Tourist trap.
My first visit of a truly commercial farm, but I was there to taste! I was there on a monday afternoon (from now on I’ll always plan my trips on mondays
and it was not busy at all. I had a fabulous host and she was really interested in my beer tasting history (that’s what I do back home in Belgium)
Offcourse I chose to go for the private collection tasting but ended up tasting all privates + the whole creative block range. It was also a nice surprise to find out my sommelier also poured the Frans K Smit in my glass which after all still is a R700 bottle.
Interesting Private Collection Pinotage. Contrast aroma taste !
Very touristy and a bit cold. Hosts are just servers. Pleasantly surprised by their Private Collection wines especially the Pinotage
Highly overrated
well a BIG place indeed, they do have a wide variety of wines which will be able to please all the palates that enter the tasting room!! i did find the restaurant very interesting and a good menu to go with it, then the ducks quaking around your feet hey… thats interesting! the views by the eatery are also great on a sunny day!
Spier has also changed their times different to what is published in the 2009 Stellenbosch Wine Routes booklet – which is inevitably just bad marketing.
Just like the Circus Spier has something for everyone. Too much action here and after being there for an hour you even forget thay have a tasting room. Way too commercial but i suppose there had to be one of these.
Helen the assistant marketer is absolutely amazing they took the time to actually approach the university wine society and wanted to get involved.
The Mother-ship of all commercial Wine Estates. Spiers’ motto must definitely be: GO BIG OR GO HOME! Once you have found a parking space you can enter the wonderland of experiences that they have on offer. It’s obviously not my first visit to Spier and I don’t think that it will be my last. Apart from the fact that it’s extremely busy, it’s always a pleasure to walk around the farm, shops and historical buildings. It’s almost as if you are at a carnival, and I think they even have the rides to go with it.
Unfortunately the tasting room was so busy, that we could not even see the bar counter. Better luck next time?
This is THE best place to end off you day or your route visit. Inlude this one in every day and close off with this one, because if you stop here, the staff will make sure you are kept happy and filled with laughter, be prepared to stay and spend some money, which is well worth it. The wines is truly great!!! loved my 3 visits in 4 day here
