The wine region of Durbanville
Historic Cape Town ward 40 km from the CBD, among the coolest Cape regions: signature emblematic Sauvignon Blanc — the South African "Super Sauvignon Blanc" produced by the 12 wineries (Diemersdal, De Grendel, Durbanville Hills) — chiselled and expressive whites with vibrant notes of tropical fruits, citrus, cut herbs and saline minerality. Maritime breezes from False and Table Bays moderate the season. Also Cabernet, Merlot, Shiraz and Chardonnay.
The wine region of Western Cape
Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
