About

Doolhof lies at the top of the Bovlei valley below the Bainskloof Pass, a 380-hectare estate along the Kromme River where most of the land is left to fynbos. The tasting room next to the cellar is open daily for its Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, and there is Mila restaurant, a country house and glamping tents by AfriCamps.
