BOTRIIVIER WINE ROUTE

THIS CREDO OF THE BOT RIVER WINEGROWERS ASSOCIATION DESCRIBES THE UNSPOILT, DOWN-TO-EARTH, SOCIABLE CHARACTER OF THE FARMERS – OUR WINES ARE FOR LOVERS OF THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED.

ANYSBOS OLYWE

Johan and Sue Heyns bought the land that was to become Anysbos in 2007. Here they make cheese and olive oil and wine with patience and care. Since their first wines were released three years ago, they have won 4½ Platter stars for their Grenache Noir and DisDit white blend for three years in a row. They started small and grew slowly and are sold out – sorry! Next year they’ll keep some for their visitors and should have the necessary facilities. And perhaps boast a five-star wine.

Trading Hours: Not open to the public

ARCANGELI WINES

This boutique winery offers an authentic Italian experience where visitors can enjoy wine tastings and accommodation in luxury self-catering guest suites. Arcangeli produces a Merlot Petit Verdot Cabernet Sauvignon blend which is refreshingly different from similar Cape offerings and a Syrah Mourvèdre which is made in the unmistakable Southern Rhône style.

Trading Hours: Tues to Sat 10:00 – 17:00
