DISCOVER CULINARY MAGIC AT CATHEDRAL CELLAR

WITH CHEF MYNHARDT JOUBERT

In the heart of Paarl, Cathedral Cellar stands as a symbol of grandeur and history in the world of fine dining. This historic
venue, originally built in 1930 by KWV, boasts an architectural marvel that includes a breathtaking barrel-vaulted roof and
stained-glass windows, reminiscent of a grand cathedral. It is home to colossal wine barrels, some of the largest in the world.
These barrels themselves are works of art, intricately carved with the history of the South African wine industry, adding a
unique artistic dimension to this remarkable space.

In 2018, Cathedral Cellar opened its doors as a private dining and events venue, taking on a new life under the custodianship
of Chef Mynhardt Joubert. The transformation was nothing short of spectacular. This iconic venue quickly established itself as
the epitome of fine dining in the winelands, offering a captivating blend of bold and understated elements. This elegance
often finds expression in bright colours contrasted with lush foliage, elegant chandeliers, and tables adorned with French
linen. The cuisine served here pays homage to heritage-inspired dishes, meticulously plated on cream porcelain, creating a
sensory experience like no other.
