Handcrafted Méthode Cap Classique in Hout Bay

About

Ambeloui Wine Cellar is a boutique winery in Cape Town located along Valley Road in the Hout Bay valley. Run by the Christodoulou family, our farm focuses on producing handcrafted Méthode Cap Classique sparkling wines made according to traditional French methods. Our sparkling wines are offered through our online shop and during our annual sales day event, held at the farm on the first weekend of November. Bottles are available on a first-come, first-served basis from limited small-batch productions.

Absolutely fantastic winery creating, in my opinion, some of the best bubbly in all of SA. The closest thing I could compare some of their offerings to is Moet - only this is better to my mind. I didn't get the chance to visit the winery this time, but did drink their bubbles in Cape Town at Luuma, and ordered a case of 6 bottles as a result. Their communication over email was genuinely superb. Highly recommended!

As Hout Bay locals, we really wanted to have Ambeloui at our wedding at Suikerbossie in May 2025. We held our own tasting party at home to pick the best bubbly for the day, and it was genuinely hard to choose. They are all so good! In the end, we opted for the Ceri 2018, and our family and friends were mightily impressed with this delicious MCC. Thank you to Miranda for looking after us with the ordering and adding to our fantastic celebration. - M-L & Albertus

Open day spent with great company under brollies and trees. Delicious food and bubbly! Definitely a must do day on the annual calendar. Bubbly available throughout the year either online or by appointment (if I'm not mistaken.)

The most enjoyable wine cellar to visit on their open days and harvest festival days. Greek food and some great MCC sparkling wines ranging from 2 years to 6 years vintage. Beautiful venue with shaded seating all through the vineyard and around the house.
