Engel & Völkers Paarl

Located 60km from Cape Town, the Cape Winelands is the largest wine-producing region in South Africa and is divided into six main wine regions, of which Franschhoek, Paarl, and Wellington are three of the most popular.

The hot, dry months between November and March offer great opportunities to dine alfresco and sip on delicious, chilled wines in the sunshine. February to March is harvest season, so you will be able to catch the vines rich and heavy with grapes. 

April and May see aging vines take on striking splashes of burnt amber, orange, yellow and brown. The weather is lovely and temperate during this time. 

The winter months from June to August bring the rain and transform the winelands into a blanket of green. This is a great time to cosy up next to a roaring fire and enjoy a range of delicious reds.

In Spring, the Winelands transform once again with sprinkles of wildflowers across the landscape. The weather from September to November is lovely and mild – the perfect time to enjoy the scenic Winelands. 

The area is considered the gourmet capital of the Cape and is home to some of the country’s best restaurants. It is characterized by scenic mountains, valleys, and vineyards, attracting both local and international tourists.
