The Unrivalled Beauty of the Cape Winelands
With the breathtaking view an hour outside Cape Town, the Winelands is a wine paradise of vineyards, cellars, and waiting wine estates. Each destination is a blend of history, culture, and, of course, good wine along the way, from Stellenbosch’s green valleys to Franschhoek. The West Cape is a province and one of the famous provinces of the vineyards with a more than a century-old history.
These varied soils and microclimates, shielded from the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, are especially conducive to the variety and award-winning excellence of South African wine, i.e., award-winning Cape blends and Pinotage. To enjoy each glass all the better, some background knowledge of their history is required. History of Wine in South Africa
The Core Wine Regions
To experience most of the Winelands’ diversity, one pleasure is to be in touch with the magic of its capital towns, one of which is so strategically located within private transfer.
- Stellenbosch: The Cradle of Cape Wine, the second European town in South Africa, is an academic and trading town. It’s renowned for gigantic cabernet-type, austere Cabernet Sauvignons, elegant Merlots, and Pinotage innovations. The estates themselves will be more likely to show Cape Dutch architectural styles, highlighting the heritage side of the tasting experience.
- Franschhoek: The Gourmet Capital “French Corner” This Huguenot settlement of refugees in the late 17th century tells the story of its heritage in no uncertain terms in the predominance of premium wines, particularly Cap Classique (South African Méthode Champenoise) and high-end-range white cultivars. Franschhoek is equally renowned nowadays for its bouquet of award-winning eateries and is a world-class culinary paradise for gourmands. It is where wine and cuisine converge.
- Paarl: Terroir and Scale, the scenic region, has a warm but moderated climate ideal for creating full-bodied red wines and fortified wine. KWV is South Africa’s biggest wine and brandy producer, and the tours allow for views of commercial-scale production and boutique family-owned vineyards.
Improving Your Wine Tasting Experience: The Private Transfer Function
While a tour to the Winelands is near enchanted, driving on the twisting mountain passes and multi-coloured wine routes of the area is no delight even for one who becomes familiar with the land. And dedicating a wine tasting is one which is against the use of a motor car. This is where Winelands Private Transfers comes in, giving you a hassle-free and stress-free transfer experience so you can enjoy wine tasting to the fullest without hassle or worry of booking or directions.
Safety, Compliance, and Peace of Mind
Private transfers’ greatest strength is an unconditional guarantee of safety. Wine tasting is drinking alcohol and sensually consuming it. Safety first is the motto of its consumption. Private car rental ensures complete focus on the observance of South African alcohol and road laws, with no letting down. South African Alcohol and Driving Legislation
