SOUTH AFRICA

South Africa is a great option for everyday drinking good value red and white wines as well as more premium single estate wines. Modern Shiraz and Pinotage are supple, fruitdriven and not overly tannic.

Whilst for the whites, originally from the Loire Valley, the Chenin Blanc grape offers fresh, crisp refreshing wines with a rich creamy midpalate. Also look out for Sauvignon which is made in a style we love.

For the reds, although laden with ripe fruit, the winemaking style is European facing and makes an interesting change.

For lovers of fruit but with the elegant definition of acidity as well-integrated tannins South Africa has it all.
