The South African wine industry is unique. It’s a peculiar blend between new world and old world styles and combines European heritage with truly African approaches. One Sommelier explains, “Each bottle of wine is a celebration of time and places and every glass tells a story.” The stories told by South African wines are fascinating.
South Africa boasts the world’s oldest wine route, Winemakers here plant a combination of indigenous varieties such as Pinotage along with global favourites like Sauvignion Blanc, and the distinct terroir helps to produce wines that are globally competitive yet purely African.
