They certainly are challenging times for the South African wine and spirits industry, which makes recent news of our client Delaire Graff Estate receiving a ‘Best in Africa” award by World’s Best Vineyards even more newsworthy and appreciated!

Amongst 3500 nominees, the ‘Jewel of the Cape Winelands’ has been placed 14th in the world and 1st in Africa. This is up by a remarkable 25 places from the inaugural World’s Best Vineyards awards held last year.

Delaire Graff Estate is an unrivalled experience, home to 2 flagship restaurants, 18 acclaimed lodge suites, a world- class villa, spa, unique luxury boutiques, and one of South Africa’s most respected art collections. Indochine is highlighted by the awards programme for its “dazzling and sophisticated Asian-influenced dining experience, combined with Delaire Graff’s unimpeachable range of wines”. Also noted is the lofty location between the historic towns of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, which offers panoramic views across a sea of grape vines in the rolling foothills of the Stellenbosch mountains.
