The wine region of Paarl
South African star at the foot of the granite rock (60 km north of Cape Town): Shiraz reigns in reds — powerful and sun-soaked with notes of blackberry, plum, black pepper, spices and a smoky touch, sturdy tannins. Structured Cabernet and Pinotage complement. Chenin Blanc king of whites — ample and lively with notes of honey, yellow fruit, candied citrus and white flowers, age-worthy acidity. Renowned Rhône-style blends.
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: Concentrator
A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
