The valleys of the Cape Winelands, with their charming towns, award-winning restaurants and quaffable wines, offer visitors a chance to slow down and drink in some of South Africa’s most picturesque scenery.
Just an hour outside of Cape Town, you can take an afternoon to indulge in fine-dining food journeys and full-bodied, Old World-style wines on one of Franschhoek’s many estates. Or wander the oak-lined streets of Stellenbosch, visiting art galleries and immersing yourself in the town’s café culture.
Steadfast travellers may want to venture slightly further afield to the coastal Swartland region or Hemel-and-Aarde Valley. Here, the cool waters of the Atlantic create a climate that’s perfect for producing fresh, elegant and well-balanced wines.
