This red wine is perhaps South Africa's calling card as a wine country. Although South Africa is considered "the New World" by wine connoisseurs, viticulture has played a role in South African culture for centuries. The Dutch introduced viticulture in the mid-17th century. It took several centuries, but today South Africa is among the top international wine-producing countries.

The Spice Route Vineyard in Swartland

Spice Route Pinotage comes from the magnificent vineyards of the Swartland wine region. This region is the smallest in South Africa in terms of production. However, the quality is sky-high. Swartland is located in the west of South Africa, northwest of the famous Stellenbosch winery. Because the region is relatively close to the Atlantic coast, it receives much-needed cooling. And that's exactly what the grapes love. Spice Route Pinotage is a wine made from South Africa's national pride: Pinotage. This unique grape, soon to celebrate its 100th anniversary, is a cross of C'Insault and Pinot Noir, and was developed at the University of Stellenbosch. In the 100 years that followed, it has proven to be a true force in South African winemaking.
