A short distance from the city, the winelands
region is one of the most picturesque areas of the Western Cape.
The three major wine routes, most passing through the quaint and historical
towns of Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek, offer an opportunity to
appreciate the Cape's history and traditions while being surrounded by
spectacular landscapes of vineyards hugging hills and valleys.
The best way to discover the winelands is by car, where you
can stop of your own accord at the wine estates' traditional Cape Dutch
homesteads. Take time to sample the farms' offerings,
tour the cellars or enjoy a leisurely lunch
on the spacious grounds.
Wine tastings, offered by age-old estates, are a popular
means of sampling one of the Cape's greatest exports. At most wine estates
it is possible to purchase bottles or cases
of the estate's wines.
