It\u2019s #Harvest2020 time and the members of the Stanford Wine Route<\/strong><\/a> have been hard at work harvesting their yields to make more of the amazing cool climate wines visitors to our region have come to love.<\/p>\n

Did you know that South Africa ranks 9th<\/sup> amongst the biggest wine producing countries in the world? (source<\/a>) It goes without saying that wine tourism is an integral part of the South African Experience for visitors \u2013 and the 8 members of the Stanford Wine Route<\/strong> are certainly playing their part in delivering some innovative and award winning wines into the mix. Along with the wines themselves, tasting experiences coupled with country restaurants and kid-friendly facilities at many of the venues adds to the appeal of the still fledgling route, now entering its 5th<\/sup> year.<\/p>\n

\u201cDrinking good wine with good food in good company is one of life\u2019s most civilized pleasures.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
