VUUR at Remhoogte Wine Estate

There are restaurants you visit for a meal, and then there are places that become part of the memory of an estate. VUUR belongs to the second kind.

Set on Remhoogte Wine Estate, in the Cape Winelands, VUUR is a complete dining experience built around fire, flavour, wine, and a setting that can only be described as breathtaking. Under the direction of chef-owner Shaun Scrooby, the restaurant celebrates open-fire cooking in its purest form, where flame, smoke, embers, and time shape every dish.

What makes VUUR special is the sense of theatre and honesty behind the experience. The kitchen is powered entirely by wood fire, where flame, embers, and smoke become part of the cooking philosophy. Guided by the best produce available and close relationships with local farmers, butchers, and foragers, VUUR brings together ingredients that speak clearly of South Africa, the season, and the craft behind every plate.

The experience is refined, but grounded. Generous, but considered. Every course carries the intensity of the fire and the precision of a chef who understands how to let exceptional produce lead. Paired with Remhoogte wines and surrounded by the natural beauty of the estate, the experience becomes something deeply connected to place.

A visit to VUUR adds a different dimension to Remhoogte. It is a space where guests can gather, settle in, and experience the estate through food as much as through wine. The vineyards, the views, the fire, and the table all come together in a way that feels rare, memorable, and unmistakably tied to where it is served.

For those looking to experience Remhoogte beyond the tasting room, VUUR offers something truly distinctive: a celebration of fire, South African produce, wine, and place, brought together in one unforgettable setting, with every detail shaped by craft and intention.
