Alternatively, buy some of the locally made cheeses and enjoy a picnic under the trees. The regions are also well known for a host of other culinary delicacies like olives, herbs and berries.
A wide range of wine types and styles are produced in the Western Cape. Red and white wines of exceptional quality are made for the international market, as well as local consumption.
The province's fortified wines - including sherry, port and muscadel - are renowned for both their good quality and affordable prices.
The Winelands are divided into various different regions, each offering their own 'wine routes'. Don't try to cover all the regions in one day.
Pick a region, and devote the whole day to driving around, exploring its estates, unique characteristics and wine tasting routes. The most popular and well-known areas are Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Paarl and Constantia.
