We have selected two whites - a Chenin, which is a variety widely, and successfully, grown in South Africa. A Sauvignon, which excels in the cooler regions. Plus two reds - a superb Bordeaux blend and a sophisticated Cabernet. South Africa at its best.

Vergelegen, and outspoken winemaker Andre Van Rensburg, are widely recognised for producing some of South Africa's finest wines. This superb value Bordeaux blend displays excellent structure, balance and finely grained tannins. The fruit consists of ripe berries and plums beautifully enhanced by silky chocolate and coffee flavours adding even further complexity to the palate.

From the Val de Vie wine estate in the heart of the cape winelands, where wine production dates back to 1825. This is a deliberately modern offering by winemaker Bertus Fourie, who has concentrated on drawing out the coffee-like aromas of South Africa’s signature grape. Intense on the nose, with a bouquet of coffee, chocolate and cherry, with meaty, savoury hints. The tannins are ripe, perfectly suiting the round and mouth-filling plum and mulberry fruit. Drink on its own or with red meat dishes. Bertus’ recommends a blue-cheese-filled brandy snap with chocolate and roasted coffee beans!
