Ten Durbanville wine farms will present their most exciting red varietals

The Taste of Terroir Winter Red Wine Tasting Soirée by Durbanville Wine Valley will feature a range of red wines across several vintages and styles. The award-winning farms of Bloemendal, Diemersdal, De Grendel, D’Aria, Durbanville Hills, Groot Phesantekraal, Klein Roosboom, Maastricht, Meerendal and Nitida will be presented. 

Durbanville wines are consistently awarded and recognised at the most authoritative local and international shows. The 2024 Trophy Wine Show saw Durbanville Hills claim the trophy for its 2022 ‘Collectors Reserve: The Promenade Pinotage’, which was also included in the Top 10 Red Wines and Top 10 Best Value Reds. Diemersdal Estate’s 2022 ‘The Journal Pinotage’ won Gold at the International Wine Challenge.

Durbanville wine route manager Natasha de Villiers says, “Durbanville celebrates its 200th anniversary of wine growing next year, and this occasion certainly showcases the excellence and expertise that dedicated families have developed over two centuries of honing their craft”.
