Every year wine critic Tim Atkin MW scrutinises South Africa’s wines. In 2018 he wrote “South Africa is producing wines that are increasingly good and supremely affordable.” Have a taste of Procavia for starters. It’s from the highly awarded Daschbosch cellars in Breede River Valley. Sandwiched between the Atlantic and the semi-desert Klein Karoo, the area has excellent soils and climate for producing fine wine. This red, named after a cute indigenous animal known locally as a dassie, is crafted from Bordeaux’s classic Cabernet and Merlot. Handpicked, cold soaked, fermented and aged in barrel for 18 months, it has the rich, ripe fruit of the New World and the Old World’s classic elegance. Mellow enough to enjoy solo or with simple steak.
