Morgenster Wine & Olive Estate in Somerset West, 35 minutes from Cape Town, is at the gateway to the Western Cape wine-growing region. It is a thriving olive and wine farm dating back to 1711, producing internationally acclaimed Bordeaux-style wines and extra virgin olive oil of astounding quality.
The Morning Star within a scallop shell as depicted on the front gable of Morgenster's beautiful manor house, the private home of owner Giulio Bertrand, is the Estate's signature and features on the labels of its fine wines and olive products.

Been to this vineyard numerous times, and will likely return many times more. The restaurant serves delicious food, but you really go for their wine tastings and olive oil tastings. Their Bordeaux blends are out of this world, and incredible value. To taste the different vintages (unfortunately they don't have all the vintages open like before, but they preselect for you) is so special, noticing the differences year on year. The LRV range is maybe even nicer than the Morgenster range, and especially for the value difference. If you are in Somerset West, do not skip this one!

cuisine

Taking its origins from the authentic Milanese cuisine, 95 at Morgenster strives to provide their guests with a glimpse of genuine Italian food, through the use of the highest quality local and imported ingredients. The secret of their fresh-tasting meals is a result of doing as little as possible to the raw ingredients, allowing the customer to taste exactly what they are looking at on the plate, unpretentious and delicious.
