When we think of the world’s top destinations to enjoy wine, the first that comes to mind are Bordeaux, Tuscany or perhaps the Napa Valley. They are known for their excellence in wine but also as places where lovers of wine can go to be immersed in the terroir of the locale, amongst the rolling hills filled with grape vines and to be able to swirl and sip at the winery’s cellar door. The experience does not end at the cellar door; beyond the bottle are culinary experiences where gastronomic menus feature local ingredients from artisan producers which are then expertly paired with home-grown wines. One destination that demands to be added to the list of the world’s finest oenophile routes is South Africa and in particular, Stellenbosch. For those who haven’t been, expect an epicurean odyssey that is on par with any other in terms of their quality of wines, vineyard experiences, and culinary pleasures. Stellenbosch, in fact, is the zenith of South African wine experiences.
