Description
Your wine guide and host Jim, is South African, and a winemaker (Hunneyball Wines and Abbotts Hill wines in Platters). He speaks English and Swedish and is a certified tourist guide for all 9 provinces for history, culture, and nature as well. You can ask him what you like. :-) This is our most popular wine-tasting tour. We visit some of the youngest and oldest wine estates in the area as well as those in between. You will swirl, sniff and taste a representative cross-section of regional wines and visit vines and cellars where possible as well. You will also learn about our Culture, History, and Cuisine in as much or little detail as you like. Jim is a Cape Wine Academy graduate and member of the South African Sommeliers Association with great interest in sharing his knowledge of all aspects of wine enjoyment and production. No matter your experience, he is eager in sharing his knowledge of all aspects of wine enjoyment and production.
