Summer is calling: great wine, food, music and more at Durbanville Hills

Tuesday, 6 October, 2026
Durbanville Hills
Summer is slowly settling in at Durbanville Hills, bringing with it longer evenings, alfresco dining, live music and plenty of reasons to gather.

From Durbanville Hills much-loved Unfiltered Thursdaze and Tasting Under the Stars to Restaurant Week, Halloween cocktails, karaoke with the winemakers and the launch of our new Olive Grove Terrace, there’s something happening throughout the early summer season. Join us for a packed calendar of good wine, great food and relaxed moments among the vines and olive trees.

Unfiltered Thursdaze

15 Oct (Tasting Under the Stars) | 29 Oct | 5 Nov | 12 Nov | 19 Nov | 26 Nov | 3 Dec | 10 Dec | 17 Dec | From 18:00

Unfiltered Thursdaze, our popular after-hours Thursday ritual, is back on in summer! This is where wine, music, food and connection come together in an unhurried, informal setting. The evening begins under the olive trees with a welcome pour and three small paired bites, followed by an informal introduction to the wines. Guests can then explore at their own pace, with pizza and wine available to purchase and music setting the mood from melodic house into the evening.

At the heart of the experience are unfiltered, experimental wines, including barrel cuts, tank samples and trial blends not usually available to taste. Guests can also take part in Guess the Barrel, with correct guesses entering a draw to win tickets to another evening. Members of the winemaking team share stories from behind the barrels, while selected evenings feature a photo booth for capturing the night. Strictly no under-18s.

R150 per person (with additional wine & food options available for purchase) | Limited tickets | Pre-booking essential
