Look no further for Stellenbosch wine tasting at its finest. Visit Quoin Rock and allow our wine ambassador to guide you through a tailored tasting of five of our wines.
If the Knorhoek Valley in Stellenbosch has captured your senses—from the Simonsberg mountains that create a natural amphitheatre, to the sophisticated elegance and sense of place of the architecture, art and ambience of Quoin Rock estate—then it remains for us to offer you a “taste of the terroir” with our range of Quoin Rock wines. We also offer a cheese and charcuterie plater to enjoy with your Stellenbosch wine experience.
Our Stellenbosch wine tasting experience is open Monday through Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00.
The Wine Lounge is currently closed for our annual winter break as of 30 June until 26 July 2025.

ABOUT OUR WINES
TERROIR & PASSION
What makes Quoin Rock one of the best wine tasting experiences in Stellenbosch is that our viticulturist and winemaker are passionately involved in maintaining the unique terroir of our vineyards. They use their love and passion to transform our grapes into award-winning wines.
SOIL & EXPERIENCE
After keeping watch on the development of the vines, the weather and the soil, the winemaker combines natural alchemy and years of experience to create superior, well-balanced wines with complex flavours.
THE JOURNEY
Today, Quoin Rock wines make their way from Quoin Rock Estate to Table Bay Harbour in Cape Town and to international ports around the world, following a historic journey for wines produced in the Stellenbosch area nearly 500 years ago.
