Wine of Origin Cape Town set to hit stores across the world

Wines produced in the surrounds of Cape Town will now be promoted under a new banner – Wine of Origin Cape Town.    A total of 29 wineries, including some of South Africa’s leading brands such as Groot Constantia, Durbanville Hills, Diemersdal, Klein Constantia, Nitida, Meerendal, Buitenverwachting and Cape Point Vineyards form part of the initiative. Wine of Origin legislation regulates how wine areas are defined. The term is designed to appear on wine labels as an advisory to consumers that 100% of the grapes used to produce the wine come from the demarcated area.
