Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What a lovely wine cellar and deli. We found the staff very helpful and knowledgeable. We only walked through on the way to the restaurant, but before we knew it we were tasting wine, which helped when it came to choosing from the wine list at Christina's. And yes, we ended up buying a box or two too!

Lovely friendly and helpful staff, especially Michaela. Did the 7.5 km hike,harder than expected, took nearly 6 hours with a few stops. The view is breath taking and lots of birds. Well signposted,just quite exposed in summer. Had a decilious Expresso milkshake at Christina's afterwards.

Van Loveren winery is a special place to visit at any time.
We pre-booked knowing that there was a large group of wine walkers heading there that morning and chose the Masters wines tasting.
Excellent experience, very knowledgable member of staff who conducted her brief with humour and made the experience even more entertaining.
Fabulous selection of wines, the experience was never rushed as we sat outside in the garden(the garden is worth a tour around), and once again we enjoyed this our second visit, the first being in 2018.
Fine shop, bubbly stoppers, a favourite wine and the Rhino cream liquor.
We will return...

If you are in the area go straight to this cellar which has beautiful treed gardens where you can taste wines and eat in shaded glades. The cellars are relatively modern and the wines are well presented. Whether or not they are to your taste is a personal choice.
However the menu is simple and attractive and the atmosphere beats anywhere in Robertson. Good service, clean and well presented facilities.

The wine tasting was excellent and the selection is across all there wines. They also had Four Cousins wine available for tasting. The restaurant on the farm serves good food and is surrounded by a beautiful garden. The farm itself is beautiful and a visit is worthwhile.

We had a Hyperli voucher for a cellar tour, tasting and bottle of wine. We were a little uncertain as to whether this was good value, but we needn't have worried. The cellar tour was very interesting and our guide was very informative. The wine tasting was well organised and really good quality. It was lovely to sit in the garden for our tasting.

My husband and I had lunch in the Christina's restaurant's garden on a beautiful summer's day.
I had the Christina burger with bacon, cheese, mushrooms and mushroom sauce with wedges. The burger patty was freshly made medium and juicy and the wedges were delicious.
Definitely the best burger I've had and believe me I've been to many great burger joints.
Their pizzas looked equally good. Will order on my next visit.

VAN LOVEREN - ROBERTSON. So many options at this family vineyard with great history. Visit the tasting room for a wide range of tasting and pairing options, do the cellar or garden tour, dine at Christina’s Bistro or head out on a hiking trail, there’s even bird watching or mountain biking for the more adventurous! Kids tasting also available. The Christina Master tasting is my recommendation! #winetasting #winepairing #riedelglass @riedel_official #riedelafrica #robertson #robertsonwinevalley #robertsontourism #winevalleysafari #cometocapetown #visitsouthafrica #westerncape #nougatpairing #olives #chocolatepairing

We visited yesterday and had a fantastic experience. Our Ambassador was Frida who was brilliant and very knowledgeable. She looked after us from start to finish. My wife had a 6 glass tasting with bread, olive oil balsamic, olives and dukkha. I had a classic 4 glass tasting. We also had a glass of MCC each and bought a bottle of Rose. The value was outstanding

We were a group of ladies on our first Girls Weekend away since lockdown! We had a wonderful private cellar tour...and then enjoyed some of their beautiful Christina MCC under the gorgeous oak trees. All the staff members we encountered were friendly and hospitable.

I am trying to contact Van Loveren to make a reservation for MTB rental in oktober. I have sent several mails but no response. Does anyone have a better experience with Van Loveren than I have?
