About

The Plett Wine & Bubbly Route took a huge step forward in late November 2013 when wine estate owners endorsed a Plett Tourism plan to develop a unique, wine and bubbly centred experience stretching from Harkerville to the Crags.

The Plett Winelands already includes 16 wine estates and will be officially launched in 2014. In the meantime, here are some Plett Wine & Bubbly facts to whet your taste buds:

• There are 16 estates; Bramon Estates produces some 80 000 bottles per annum and assists other estates with producing 100 000 bottles per annum.
• Most are producing Sauvignon Blanc and Bubbly – and the quality is considered to be on a par with that produced in New Zealand’s world renowned Marlborough estates.
• Several estates are investing, or planning to invest, in new vineyards and wine cellars.
• You can book to taste wine at most of the estates.
• You can ride horses or hike between some estates – Bramon, Newstead Estates and Anderson Wines link with lodges such as Hogs Hollow and Tamodi.
• We hope by the time you return next year we will have a Plett Winelands Store selling the best of the region under one roof.
• We are also looking at integrating the emerging Plett Winelands with home industry products, township tours, farm tours, restaurants, lodges, B&B’s, and hiking, mountain bike and horse trails.
