SOUTH AFRICA MW TRIP

11 – 20 November 2023

Over the course of the past decade or so, South Africa has become one of the most exciting wine-producing countries in the world. Discover the reasons for the country’s growing success on a trip that will take in some of the country’s premium wine-growing regions, from the cooler zones of Elgin and coastal Hemel-en-Aarde to the warmer inland vineyards of the Breede River Valley. During the visit to Stellenbosch, participants will be able to dig deep into the region’s terroir, taste the diversity of its hallmark grape varieties and explore its viticultural diversity. Seminars and tastings will focus on a broad range of topics, including South Africa’s Old Vine Project, black-owned brands and technical innovations.
