End summer the Mont Rochelle way! Join us on 10th April for a scenic evening picnic on the lawns with an unforgettable live performance from celebrated electric cellist Carol Thorns, creator of That Girl in the Bubble.

As summer fades and the golden light softens over the Mont Rochelle vineyards, join us for a relaxed afternoon of great food, open skies, and extraordinary live music to bid the season a beautiful farewell. 

We welcome twice South African Music Award-nominated electric cellist Carol Thorns, who fills the grounds with soulful, immersive sound, her layered cello gliding over strings and piano in a way that stills the soul. Having opened for Vanessa Mae and Elton John, Carol brings world-class artistry to the afternoon, weaving together original compositions and reimagined favourites.

Enjoy a gourmet picnic basket and welcome drink, with our award-winning wines available from the bar.
