Franschhoek Wine Route

La Motte Wine Estate, Paarl Wine Route, Cape Town

The Franschhoek Wine Route lies in Franschhoek Valley.

The Franschhoek valley was first settled over 300-years ago by the French Hugenots and the many guesthouses, streetside cafes and award winning restaurants demonstrate a truly French flair.

Lying against the backdrop of the majestic Franschhoek and Drakenstein mountains, the town with its picturesque main street showcases antique stores and art galleries rubbing shoulders with bakeries and the chocolaterie.

Franschhoek is also home to many festivals from the annual Bastille Day festival to cheese, wine and olive festivals at various times throughout the year.
