Stellenbosch Hot Air Balloon and Champagne Tasting Tour Overview:
Without any delay, we head off to the Stellenbosch wine route region. Climb into our first bubble of the day and Float like a cloud, look down on a 360 degree ever changing view. Enjoy the peace and tranquility while watching the sun rise above the horizon. Toast the landing where ever that may be with a traditional glass of Sparkling wine and/or orange juice to celebrate your flight.
We then head out to two wine estates, The House of J.C. Le Roux. This wine estate is the leading wine estate dedicated exclusively to creating sparkling wine. It was also the first wine estate in South Africa to undertake this endeavor. Using a traditional French style technique, this wine estate creates the finest vintage Methode Cap Classique's
Our next stop on this tour is at the Lanzerac Wine Estate. This wine estate arose in 1692 when Isaac Schrijver was granted a piece of land by the then Governor of The Cape, Simon Van Der Stel, and it has since grown into the most iconic South African wine estate it is today.
