Wines & Food


Have tasted some excellent Pinotages from a number of wineries and some very good Chenin  and Sauvignon Blanc. They also have excellent rosé brut sparkling – the Graham Beck is a personal favourite. The biggest surprise was the Zinfandel from Glen Carlou whose owners also have wineries in the Napa valley. It was as good as anything I have tasted from the southern hemisphere.
Have also found some good local cheeses, locally smoked trout, mussels from Saldanha Bay, and calamari from the Falklands which have all been accompanied by a variety of wines from the valley.
