Tucked away at the foothills of the Riviersonderend Mountains lies the charming village of McGregor — a place where time seems to pause and everyday worries melt away. Surrounded by rolling vineyards and gravel streets, McGregor is the heart and soul of a unique winemaking region that reflects the serenity and richness of its land.
The vineyards here thrive at elevations between 200 and 350 meters above sea level, with each plot offering distinct terroirs that infuse the wines with character, minerality, and complexity. Inspired by the beauty and essence of its surroundings, McGregor Winery crafts wines that embody the spirit of this peaceful valley.
At the core of McGregor Winery is the Terroir Collection—a premium range of wines made from meticulously selected vineyard sites. The collection showcases varietals such as Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and the newly released Pinotage. Each wine is a tribute to the unique soil, climate, and craftsmanship of McGregor, offering a true taste of place in every bottle.
A visit to McGregor Winery is more than a tasting—it’s an experience. Guests are invited to explore the wines with the warm guidance of Mercia, who leads tastings in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Local deli items are available for custom platters, perfect for enjoying by the fire in winter or picnicking on the expansive lawn in summer.
For a whimsical twist, try the ice cream and wine pairing—a delightful offering in collaboration with Bitter Soet. Five handcrafted wines are paired with five gourmet ice cream flavors, each combination telling its own delicious story. It’s R80 for the full pairing experience, and there’s even a grape juice and ice cream option for the kids.
Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or a palate-pleasing adventure, McGregor Winery invites you to slow down, savor the flavors, and stay a little longer.
