Arra Vineyards
Winery Description
Location and History
Nestled in the heart of South Africa's Cape Winelands, just north of Stellenbosch, Arra Vineyards enjoys a prime location where every step of wine production—growing, crafting, and bottling—occurs on-site. Surrounded by the protective Klapmuts Mountain, which provides ample water and shields the vines from the Cape's south-easterly winds, the estate benefits from optimal soil and north-facing slopes that bask in abundant sunshine.
Spanning 74 hectares, the estate dedicates 27 hectares to a diverse selection of vines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Viognier, Ruby Cabernet, Merlot, Shiraz, and Pinotage. Arra's wines are aged with meticulous care in the finest French oak barrels for up to 24 months, ensuring they develop rich, fruity flavours and smooth textures. This dedication to quality means our wines reach their full potential in the bottle before they are made available for sale.
Wine Tasting
The Arra Tasting Room, centrally located amidst the vineyards and next to the maturation cellar, offers stunning views of Paarl Mountain, the Franschhoek Valley, and the Simonsberg Mountains. Guests can enjoy a gourmet food platter along with wine by the glass or bottle.
