Cheese & Wine Pairing Experience at Anura Vineyards
Discover the perfect harmony of handcrafted wines and artisan cheeses with Anura’s Cheese & Wine Pairing Experience.
Nestled on the picturesque foothills of the Simonsberg Mountains, Anura Vineyards invites you to indulge in a sensory journey that celebrates the harmony between handcrafted wines and artisanal cheeses. The Cheese & Wine Pairing Experience is the perfect introduction to Anura’s passion for boutique winemaking and traditional cheese-making — all in one unforgettable tasting.
Anura has a diverse terroir with a wide variety of soils, slopes, and microclimates. Their vineyards produce an exceptional range of cultivars — from local favourites to rare international varietals such as Sangiovese, Mourvèdre, Petit Verdot, and Grenache. The wines reflect this diversity and dedication to handcrafted excellence, offering guests something unique, expressive, and distinctly Anura.
Complementing this winemaking philosophy is the Forest Hill Cheesery, established in 2000 and located right on the estate. With a strong focus on traditional, handmade processes, Forest Hill produces small-batch, full-flavoured cheeses — from creamy, rich Brie and Camembert to their signature Anura Mountain Cheese, a Gruyère-style cheese matured to perfection over 5–7 months.
