Book Description
This book is a glorious tribute to South African wines and the personalities behind the wines. A brief history of the South African wine industry is followed by cellar techniques, the soils, climates, maps and main grape varieties as well as the development of the vineyards, the wines, the people and their winemaking philosophies. Text is informal but informative and includes a unique blend of historical family estate ownership, modern young negociant winemaking and large co-operative wineries in the Cape.
