THE HISTORY OF STELLENBOSCH
The documented history of Stellenbosch dates back to 1679 when this name was given to a small island on the Eerste River by Simon van der Stel, the then commander of the Cape. It can, however, be assumed that prior to its official naming, the Stellenbosch surrounds were home to various indigenous communities. The Eerste River, which today still ripples through Stellenbosch, was so named as this happened to be the first (‘Eerste’) river the Dutch settlers came upon after leaving their Cape Town base. After its establishment, Stellenbosch was quickly identified as an area in which to settle which had real potential for agriculture. The very first documented farmer to start cultivating in this area was Stevenz Botma who broke ground in the region in 1679, his farm was called Welgevallen. The main tasks of these farmers was to grow grain, trade in livestock with the indigenous tribes, and supply food to the settlement in Cape Town. The soil in the surrounding areas proved to be very fertile and had a conducive climate for producing vegetables to sustain the ships passing by the Cape of Good Hope en route to the other Dutch colonies in the East. Add to this the thirst of the Dutch and Stellenbosch soon saw its hills and valleys planted with vines by the end of the 17th century. The earliest building in the Stellenbosch area dates back to 1689 and can still be viewed on the historic wine farm of Muratie. In the town itself, solid, white-plastered buildings arose. Besides its rapid growth in becoming a hub for the flourishing wine industry, the foundations for Stel-
lenbosch’s heritage as an educational centre were laid in 1859 when a theological seminary was established. In 1918 a university was founded and to this day the University of Stellenbosch remains an internationally recognized educational institution and one of the leading universities on the African continent. The heart of Stellenbosch still resonates with a historical atmosphere and cultural allure. The buildings reflect over three centuries of occupation including Dutch, Georgian and Victorian architecture. A myriad of museums and places of interest are found along the oak-lined streets. Besides its status as a leading cultural, education and leisure destination, it is wine that has made and continues to make Stellenbosch famous. In 1971 three Stellenbosch visionaries and winery owners, namely Frans Malan of Simonsig, Spatz Sperling of Delheim and Niel Joubert of Spier established the first wine route in South Africa. Today the Stellenbosch American Express® Wine Routes include 5 sub-routes, all colour coded on the map for easy identification to make it easy for the visitor to plan their visit. Today this buzzing University town is also lovingly known as the Town of Oaks or “Eikestad”. The reason for this is obvious when you stroll down the oak lined streets. Local students believe that it is a sign of good luck and that it will go very well with your examinations if an acorn falls on your head. So if you are in need of good luck go for a stroll under the oaks.

STELLENBOSCH 360 - a new era
Stellenbosch is undoubtedly one of the most important tourism destinations in the Western Cape and in South Africa. During 2011 the Stellenbosch Tourism and Information Authority, together with key partners, launched a new project for the establishment of a holistic destination brand. This groundbreaking initiative is aptly named ‘STELLENBOSCH 360’ as it is truly the first time the full spectrum of stakeholders in Stellenbosch are asked to take hands and build a better future together. To build and grow a brand is one of the most exciting processes for any business, destination or organisation. It is also one of the most powerful business tools that has the potential to make a real difference to the Stellenbosch community. We are asking you to share your viewpoints on what really makes Stellenbosch the place we love. This will help us identify the brand pillars and brand essence. Go to www.mystellenboschstory.co.za and let your voice be heard. The following eight strategic goals have been identified for an inclusive and future-focussed tourism plan for Stellenbosch. 1. To enhance the national and international reputation of Stellenbosch as a compelling tourism destination, and thereby increase year-round tourism revenue from target markets. 2. To support visitor loyalty and uptake through a physical environment that is focussed on the quality of the visitor experience.
3. To actively assist all tourism stakeholders (e.g. attractions, accommodation providers, small businesses) in delivering excellent service, becoming highly competitive and adopting sustainable tourism practices. 4. To provide the appropriate visitor information services, where and when needed. 5. To build a culture of organisational excellence through strategic management, research and development, and stakeholder relations. 6. To encourage stakeholders to contribute to a sustainable funding model for the Stellenbosch Brand. 7. To build mutually beneficial strategic, operational and thematic partnerships. 8. To embrace transformation by supporting SMME development and BroadBased Black Economic Empowerment practices. We need everybody to think, share and collaborate. To assist this process of learning and participation, STI is engaging all stakeholders through the ‘My Stellenbosch Story’ campaign. Whether you are alumni of the university, a young learner at school, a Winelands bride, or an international delegate attending a conference, STI would like to know what makes Stellenbosch special for you.

BE A RESPONSIBLE TOURIST 8 Ways to a “Green” Stellenbosch: 1 Save Water 2 Save Energy
13 Tips and Tricks for Greening your stay: 1 2
Unplug Appliances drain energy even when they’re not on. If you just spend 2 minutes unplugging items you will already have made a difference. Hang your towels and save the environment one towel at a time.
3 Don't open all the soap bars, move them from shower to bath to wash basins. 4
Stick the “Do not Disturb” on your door for short stays. Or just call housekeeping and tell them you won’t need their services during your stay.
5
Adjust the thermostat. By lowering the temperature by 2 degrees in the winter or raising it by 2 in the summer you will save a lot of energy. And you won’t notice the difference.
6
When you leave the room turn everything off: • Lights • TV • Thermostat (if weather is mild)
7 Flush less frequently. 8 Bring your own toiletries. 9 Take shorter showers. Sometimes a long, hot shower feels incredible. But do you need that every day?

THE WORLD’s finest
Been there, seen that, done it all when it comes to the Cape Winelands? Then take the road less-travelled to explore brandy - the country’s iconic elixir - at its source. The world’s finest brandies, a wealth of brandy styles, as well as secrets and stories wait to be unearthed on two unique tourism routes dedicated to the brandy distiller’s art. Both take you on a personal journey through the heart of wine country. But, this time, when you embark on the Western Cape Brandy Route or explore the R62 Brandy Route in the hinterland of Cape brandy-making, you may just forget the wine and focus on the brandy. Not really such a big leap; brandy is made from wine, after all.

We live in one of the most beautiful and desirable wine growing areas in the world. We are fortunate to call Stellenbosch – the capital of quality wine production in South Africa – our home. This is why the Stellenbosch Wine Routes have an initiative called the “Proudly Stellenbosch� campaign to reward restaurants who support local wines. Restaurants who stock more than 75% local wines, has a reasonable corkage fee, offer wines by the glass from our region, and promotes the region as a whole, are named “Proudly Stellenbosch� and receive branding for their menus, a sticker to be placed on their door and receive coverage on the Wine Routes’ website and in the local paper as recommended restaurants in the Stellenbosch area.
Stellenbosch is proud of its heritage and being recognized as South Africa’s premier wine growing region. Look out for the Proudly Stellenbosch logo on restaurant doors or wine lists and remember: Think quality – drink Stellenbosch! Below is a list of restaurants who have received the Proudly Stellenbosch accolade. For more information, visit www.wineroute.co.za, or phone 021 886 4310.

As a leading South African ambassador and one of the most recognizable faces in the world of sport, Ernie Els’ life has mirrored a passion for excellence. This pursuit has been reflected in his exceptional sporting achievements. His focus, discipline and commitment have been the foundation of his success, and these factors are evident in his quest to produce premium wine. Befittingly Ernie chose Stellenbosch to produce his wines and in 1999, with the help of award-winning winemaker Louis Strydom, the concept of Ernie Els Wines was born. In 2000 the first grapes were crushed to produce the maiden vintage of Ernie Els Signature - a ‘classic’ Bordeaux blend. The marketing synergy between the wine and Ernie’s ‘classic’ golf swing were apparent. A decade on since humble beginnings, this exciting venue now crafts a selection of impressive wines.

The Dumas family has been making wine on the estate for three generations. The present owner and winemaker is Cornelis assisted by his son, Hannes. We produce wines using traditional French techniques. Fermentation is allowed to develop spontaneously from the natural yeast cells on the skins in open tanks. Colour and flavour is extracted by punching through the cap regularly into the juice. Using only the free-run juice this method allows for subtler but deeper flavours where tannins are less evident, so distinctive of Jacobsdal Pinotage.

THE PHILOSOPHY. The source of distinctive wines is quality grapes and thus the vintner’s work begins in the vineyards. Vines vary greatly in their soil, climatic and topographical requirements. No single vineyard can satisfy the needs of all grape varieties. We select vineyards where individual varieties excel. Emphasis placed on caring viticultural practices by dedicated growers together with careful winemaking contributes to this pursuit of excellence in the art of winemaking. “A pursuit of quality, nothing less.” - Neil Ellis
