Perched high upon the southwestern slopes of the Simonsberg mountain range, the sprawling estate of Uitkyk-Afrikaans for "lookout"-revels in splendid panoramic views, its rich heritage, and spectacular setting. At the heart of the historic wine estate lies a painstakingly restored Neoclassical manor house adorned with period murals, one of only three double-story, flat-roofed Georgian style houses dating from the 18th Century still extant in the country. Uitkyk's award-winning wines are grown on slopes ranging from 200 to 500 meters above sea level with nearly 100 hectares of the 600-hectare farm planted to vines, and a 1,000-tonne cellar provides plentiful wine storage. The estate additionally offers a conservancy of endangered silver trees, an extensive network of hiking and mountain bike trails, and two dams for irrigation.
