South Africa has superb, almost unique natural conditions for making exciting wines. Today the growers take advantage of these conditions to create great wines. And they want to experiment.
They use old vines whenever possible; they promote old grape varieties, such as cinsault, carignan and grenache (or have you heard of “chenil”?). To this, we can add the country’s own grape variety, pinotage, which is finally being acknowledged as the high-quality grape it really is. Cabernet sauvignon and syrah are doing very well indeed thank you, in Stellenbosch, one of the regions we will visit during our tour. We also go to Franschhoek, Walker Bay, Elgin and Swartland. Almost all of vinous South Africa, classic and avant-garde.
We start the tour in beautiful Cape Town. We will admire the view from Table Mountain, we will get to know the flavourful Malay cuisine, and we will visit the legendary Cape of Good Hope.
