The estate has produced award-winning wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Franschhoek Valley.

The estate is renowned for its premium wines, which can be tasted at the elegant Tasting Room, where knowledgeable staff guide visitors through a selection of the estate’s finest offerings.
Dining and Art: The estate's The Restaurant at Grande Provence offers a world-class dining experience. It showcases South African cuisine with a contemporary twist, crafted from fresh, locally sourced ingredients, often paired with the estate’s wines. The restaurant is set within beautifully landscaped gardens, adding to the serene ambiance.
In addition to wine and food, Grande Provence is home to an impressive art gallery, which features a collection of contemporary South African art. The gallery regularly hosts exhibitions, making it a cultural highlight of the estate.
