Robertson Winery Robertson Wine Valley South Africa - Africa Travel Channel
Established in 1941, Robertson Winery celebrated their 70th Birthday in 2011. The winery had its humble beginnings in a charming missionary church on the outskirts of Robertson, and it's history is closely linked to that of the town. Robertson, established 1852, were named it in recognition and appreciation of the many services of Dr William Robertson, a Scottish minister who arrived in South Africa in 1822. During the late 19th century the worker community that occupied the land where the Robertson Winery now stands built a stone church and their congregation was serviced by missionaries. When Robertson Winery was established in 1941, the small church was no longer in use and the winery acquired the building for its winemaking and cellaring operations.

Bon Courage
150 km. van Kaapstad gelegen aan de Breederivier ligt het wijngebied Robertson; valley of wines and roses. Dit prachtige en vruchtbare gebied staat bekend om zijn wijnen met veel diepte, complexiteit en karakter. Het Estate van Bon Courage ligt net buiten de stad Robertson daar waar de Breederivier twee kleinere riviertjes ontmoet. Het Estate geniet al sinds 1818 de volledige toewijding en kennis van de familie Bruwer, wiens voorouders afkomstig zijn uit de Franse Loire. Vandaag de dag is de dagelijkse leiding in handen van Andre en zijn zoon Jacques, de derde generatie.
Bon Courage is in het trotse bezit van de modernste productiemiddelen, die nodig zijn voor de productie van echte kwaliteitswijnen. Tevens van belang voor de productie van kwalitatief hoogwaardige wijnen is natuurlijk het klimaat. De dagen zijn natuurlijk warm en erg rijk aan zonne uren, terwijl de nachten relatief koel zijn door de aanwezigheid van de drie rivieren.Hierdoor verkrijgen de druiven optimale rijpheid en aroma's.
De druiven worden met de hand geselecteerd, na de vroege oogst in de morgen. Doordat men tijdens de groei van de druiven het overbodige blad van de wijnstokken wegknipt, vangen de druiven maximaal zon en worden zo optimaal rijp. Men laat alleen de best rijpende trossen aan de stok hangen en knipt de rest weg. Dit verlaagt natuurlijk het rendement en is dus erg kostbaar. Het komt echter absoluut ten goede van de kwaliteit.
De Chardonnay Prestige Cuvee wordt gemaakt van de beste Chardonnay druiven van de oudere wijnstokken. Het sap uit deze druiven ondergaat een rijping van acht maanden op Frans eiken. Voor een maximum aan aroma's en frisheid laat men de wijn ook op z'n gist liggen. Intense Chardonnay met een aroma van perzik en citrus. In de mond komen ook de invloeden van grapefruit, limoen en lichte vanille en butterscotch naar voren. Prachtige, complexe en lange afdronk !

De Wetshof Wine Estate in the Robertson Wine Valley South Africa - Africa Travel Channel
De Wetshof Wine Estate in the Robertson Wine Region is one of South Africa's premier chardonnay houses, creating a wide range of wine styles from this versatile varietal. The Estate, however, offers a balanced portfolio of impressive, award winning wines from vineyards and a cellar where cutting-edge technology and common sense farming and winemaking go hand-in-hand. Nearly all South Africa's wine is grown in the same area as the Cape Floral Kingdom and we think that is why it is so special.

This was an amazing weekend / vlog where I spent two days in Robertson and I joined a wine tour and I tried 3 different wine farms and do wine tasting. We got to try the best wines of Robertson and Robertson winery. I must say this was the best way to taste wine with wine valley safari. check the links below of the safari as well as the various wine farms within Robertson.
This is a must to add to your Cape Town wine route.
