South African Wines

Skip to List
Since the fall of Apartheid in 1994, South African wine production has modernised and evolved more than any other country. Most grape varieties thrive in South Africa - the finest reds tend to be made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah / Shiraz and the whites from Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc. Other varietals grown include Pinot Noir, Tinta Barocca, Merlot, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc and, of course, Pinotage. This variety, which South Africa is famous for, was invented at the University of Stellenbosch by Dr. Abraham Izak Perold in 1925 and is a Pinot Noir x Cinsault cross. Wine production is centred around the Cape, the most important area being Stellenbosch, other areas include Malmesbury, Elgin, Paarl, Walker Bay, Franschoek and Robertson. There are a number of large producers who are very important, such as Nederburg and the Distell Group ( who own Jacobsdal, Le Bonheur and Alto Estates). There are also plenty of smaller, boutique wineries. These include top Stellenbsoch winery Vergelegen, Jordan Wines and Boschendal. There are also some port-style wines - the Allesverloren Fine Old Vintage is typical of the style.
