Wine Tasting

Time slows, senses sharpen and South African wines reveal their stories. At Monwana in Greater Kruger, wine tastings feature carefully curated selections from established estates to hidden boutique farms. Our sommelier shares stories of each vineyard and suggests pairings for your meals, helping you discover what speaks to you. The bush setting adds something special: no rush, no noise, just good wine and the sounds of wilderness around you.

Sundowner Tastings

Settle into your private deck as afternoon fades to evening. Glasses poured, animals arriving at the waterhole below. This isn't about rushing through a list - it's about savouring each wine while the bush quiets around you.

Notice how the setting enhances the experience: the cool evening air, the colours changing, the wildlife moving. Good wine in a beautiful setting, where sometimes the best pairings aren't on the menu.
