The South African wine scene is home to one of the major internationally successful hybrids, Pinotage. South African winemakers have for a long time had their gaze set leagues ahead of other countries. This insanely exciting country is home to some of the youngest, coolest and most forward thinking winemakers out there. 

Even after a particularly devastating year climate-wise in 2020, these winemakers are a hardy bunch, and turned the worst drought in history into a chance to push their winemaking skills to the limit.  South African wine is so much more than just Chenin Blanc, although their Chenin Blanc is still a superstar. Think radical field blends to blow the doors off, or velvety natural wines with verve and funk in equal measure. One of the most amazing things about South African wines is the incredible value they represent; serious quality for unbeatable prices.
