Gary and Kathy Jordan have been making world-class wines since 1993 on a farm with a history going back over 300 years. He’s a geologist, she’s an economist – together this husband and wife team is a phenomenon. Gary’s parents, Ted and Sheelagh, bought the 146 hectare Stellenbosch property in 1982, and embarked on an extensive replanting programme, specializing in classic varieties suited to the different soils and slopes.

From the Jordan hillside vineyards one has spectacular panoramic views of Table Mountain, False Bay and Stellenbosch. Gary and Kathy worked internationally for two years, refining their high-energy instincts with practical experience. They returned home to build a cellar in 1992.

The award winning Jordan Restaurant, is the perfect way to enjoy the vineyards: open for a la carte lunch, and a six course set menu for dinner. Menus at Jordan Restaurant change daily, but the format for lunch and dinner remain the same throughout the year.

The Cheese Room features South African cheeses including blues such as Brevis Blue and Cremolat Gorgonzola, hard cheeses like Kimilili Witzenberger and Healy’s Mature Cheddar and a selection of goat’s cheese. Most of Jordan's cheeses are made by small producers from all over South Africa and are not available in retail outlets. Guests are invited to make their own selection to enjoy with wine or as a dessert.

Open:
Lunch (a la carte): Monday- Sunday: 12:00 - 15:00
Six course set menu: Thursday - Saturday from 18:30.

The restaurant has the kitchen on display with a magnificent view of vineyards and hills opposite. A great setting that is not let down by the food. Yellowtail cerviche perhaps needs an extra dimension to offset the tartness, but the seared springbok starter is an exciting mix of flavour - each component artfully placed on the serving board. Fried kabeljou mains was perfectly cooked and side dishes are not necessary - but the thick cut multi-cooked chips are delicious mmmm! This was the first restaurant I've been to that doesn't even have salt on the table - but everything was flavoured so well that extra flavourings were not missed at all. They make an impossibly light souffle - you have to try for yourself...and you'll wish that the chocolate mousse with salted caramel lasts just a bit longer on your tongue. If there was something to complain about, I could then say that they were overpriced, but to enjoy great food in a lovely relaxed setting - even the bill didn't leave a bad taste.

One of our favorites! Their spinach cone starters are great as 'ice breakers' to get a fun vibe at the table...
