Vergelegen Wine Estate in Somerset West celebrated the close of its abundant grape harvest in true farm style, hosting two rustic feasts in a new pop-up venue – a characterful old farm building that once served as the estate’s dairy.
The celebratory events took place on Sunday 6 and Sunday 13 April, offering guests a memorable taste of the estate’s rich heritage and hospitality.
Festivities began at the Wine Tasting Centre, where guests gathered before travelling in farm vehicles to a scenic vineyard setting. Here, they sipped on Vergelegen’s Heritage Cap Classique, enjoyed gourmet canapés, and had the chance to hand-pick their own grapes.
The experience continued at the old dairy, where communal tables were beautifully laid for a hearty farm-style dinner. Live music by the CeeKay acoustic cover band added to the festive atmosphere.
Vergelegen’s generous hospitality, authenticity and natural beauty were a fitting tribute to a fruitful season – and a taste of good things still to come.
