Spier Farm Café Valentine’s Day Picnic

Spier has a magical picnic experience to make this Valentine’s Day your most romantic one yet. I mean, it’s a beautiful place, right? The food and range of choices are bedazzling, right? So all you have to do is get Mr/Ms Right to say ‘Yes!, and you’re all set for a fab night out.

As dusk falls and guitarist Matt Carsten’s smokey voice drifts over the lawns, couples can cosy up underneath the ancient oaks of the historic Spier Werf. Once you’ve popped your bottle of Spier Méthode Cap Classique Brut (cheers, babe!), it’s time to feast on a picnic basket literally bursting with locally-sourced deliciousness. Goodies include gourmet salads, a fresh baguette and cheese, pastured-reared charcuterie, roast beef and chicken from Spier’s very own Farmer Angus. A decadent chocolate mousse ends the night on a sweet note.
