For the third year in a row the Alto wine estate on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain near Somerset West is offering its once-a-week summer sundowners.

Known for its stunning views and impressive collection of classically-styled red wines, it’s the perfect venue to enjoy an end-of-day refresher.

At R50 per person, visitors can sip on a refreshing red-wine-infused cocktail and snack on a selection of freshly-baked breads served with pesto, extra virgin olive oil and pâtés while watching the sun set over the vineyards and surrounding mountains.

These sundowners are served from 17:00 to 19:00 every Wednesday until the end of February 2012.  Booking is essential on 021 881 3884
