Visit South Africa’s Wine Country With This Guide to the Cape Winelands

"I visit Badenhorst’s unpaved, laid-back cellar near Malmesbury and find an impressive range of wines served by Adi Badenhorst himself, who greets guests in shorts and a slogan T‑shirt; Thursday night is famously pizza night (you reserve a table and bring your own wine), and his wines range from the easy-drinking Secateurs line up to two very different Cinsauts planted in the 1960s. The Ramnasgras Cinsaut, in particular, is spicy, fresh, and full of luscious fruit — I bet it's great with pizza. Note that Adi welcomes visitors on Wednesdays and select Fridays at 11:30 a.m., and you can book cellar-tour appointments at least 48 hours ahead, with optional farm lunches available year-round." - Nina Caplan
