Top 10 best South African wines.
Whether it’s honeyed chenin blancs or silky pinot noirs, South Africa’s wines are improving in leaps and bounds.
South Africa has come a long way. During its isolation, most of the country’s wines were tired and dreary, with the reds often tasting of burnt rubber and the whites of acid drops. But since then there has been a dramatic increase in quality.
South Africa is currently the world’s ninth largest wine producer with more than 600 wineries and 6,000 wines. It is the fastest growing wine-supplying country in Britain, with a 12.1 per cent share of the market, hot on the heels of Italy and France (13 and 13.1 per cent, respectively).
Much of this is driven by the big brands such as Arniston Bay and Kumala, but the top end has played its part, too, with fabulous wines to be enjoyed from the likes of Thelema, Tokara, Hamilton Russell, Vergelegen, Meinert, Iona, Raats Family, Meerlust, Kanonkop, Boschendal, Boekenhoutskloof, Jordan, Morgenster and Rustenberg.
South Africa now competes in every category, with crisp sauvignons and creamy chardonnays; honeyed chenin blancs and silky pinots. Even pinotage, notorious as something
of an acquired taste, is producing some wonderful fruit-driven wines.
