About Jordan Wine Estate
Founded in 1982 by Ted and Sheelagh Jordan; their son Gary, a geologist, and his wife Kathy, an economist, have made the wines since 1993. Tastings are seated under trees overlooking the dam or on the terrace facing the Stellenbosch mountains; vineyard tours at 10:00 and 14:00 and cellar tours at 11:00 and 15:00 need booking. The Cellar Door serves an all-day menu at cellar prices and the Jordan Restaurant with Marthinus Ferreira is one of the region's serious lunches.
Visitors single out lakeside tastings, family-run since 1982, serious lunch. The estate dates from 1982.
