 Buitenverwaggting (Beyond expectation) is a beautiful farm on the east-facing slopes of the magnificent Constantiaberg. It was part of the Constantia Estate, founded by Simon van der Stel, the first Governor of the new Dutch colony.

First sold as a 200 morgen sub-division to Cornelis Brink in 1773, Buitenverwachting changed hands many times, however,  it flourished as a wine farm, due mainly to the 90 000 vines planted in 1825 by Ryk Arnoldus Cloete, brother of the famous Hendrik Cloete of Constantia.

Attractions on the estate include:

  • The wine-tasting experience is housed in the historic wine cellar
  • The restaurant “Beyond” underscores its commitment to supporting smaller growers, farmers and producers who form part of a sustainable supplier ecosystem.
  • Coffee BloC is a lovely sit-down restaurant/coffee shop
  • A lifestyle gift shop,
  • The deli where locally made jams, honey, biscuits, cordials, rusks, and more are for sale
