The wine region of Calitzdorp
South African Port Wine capital (Klein Karoo, Route 62, deep alluvial red soils, microclimates under Indian Ocean breezes): Tinta Barroca, Touriga Nacional and Tempranillo as Portuguese signature reds and fortified kings — Cape Port profile of intensity and depth, concentrated dark fruits, spicy notes, enveloping sweetness. Fragrant dry Calitzdorp blend. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz and Pinotage as complement. References Boplaas, De Krans, Axe Hill.
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: Alcoholic fermentation
Transformation of sugars into alcohol under the effect of yeast. These yeasts exist in their natural state in the vineyards and in the cellars. Artificial seeding with selected yeasts is however very often practiced.
