Wine, Wine, Wine...The Western Cape Region and its delicious wines are becoming more the recognition they deserve.

​

The Cape winelands are some of the most scenic and beatiful in the world. The wine tourism is booming in recent years and is one of South Africa’s fastest growing industries. Remarkably, South Africa has the largest number of Fairtrade certified wineries in the world and the biggest single Fairtrade accredited project worldwide was launched at Du Toitskloof Cellar in Rawsonville in the Western Cape. Normally, when people thinking of the Cape Winelands, first Stellenbosch, Paarl, Wellington and Franschhoek come to their minds. However, over the past years South African wine has undergone a whole new momentum. An emerging ethos of young and creative producers has taken the local wine industry into the global arena. South African wine has come of age and is now competing with the world best wine areas. A whole new generation of winemakers has appeared and there has been a shift from grape farming to wine growing. The Western Cape have around 2,700 Wine Grape Farmers, 45 Producer Cellars,  460 Private Wine Cellars.
