The wine region of Voor Paardeberg
Ward of the Paarl district (Western Cape, South Africa) integrated into WO in 2006 on south-east slopes of the Paardeberg granite inselberg, 15 km north of Paarl: Shiraz Rhône-style, Pinotage and Cabernet Sauvignon in reds, Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc on higher ground. Draining granite soils rich in potassium, 5°C cooler than Paarl in summer thanks to southerly winds — robust yet bright and fresh wines, aromatic intensity preserved by cool nights.

Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.
