SOUTH AFRICA
The wine industry in South Africa is relatively young. Jan van Riebeeck, a Dutch physician, planted 1655 - around 350 years ago - the first vines in the Cape Governor Simon van der Stel, who founded not only the town of Stellenbosch, but also the legendary vineyard Constantia, brought dynamic development in the South African viticulture. The heyday during the colonial rule of England in early to mid-19th Century there were major setbacks in the wine.
After the end of apartheid in 1994 and the associated opening of world markets achieved a renaissance for South African wines. Thanks to improved wine knowledge, quality-oriented plantings and a new generation of enthusiastic winemakers South Africa can now maintain its position on the world market again.
The most popular export varieties are Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon
