Hemel-En-Aarde Wine Route
Hemel-en-Aarde meaning “Heaven and Earth” in Afrikaans – a young wine route that produces some of the best wines in South Africa. Although it has a similar alignment and proximity to the ocean like the Constantia wine route, this valley is known for its exceptional Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and MCC (Methode Cap Classique – South African sparkling wine).
A small wine route of incredible charm and wine quality. It is further south, has a slightly higher, but more evenly spread rainfall over the seasons and has a lower average temperature over the year.
Hemel-En-Aarde Wine Route
:
The Hemel-En-Aarde wine route is one of the most scenically beautiful wine regions in the Western Cape. The wine route isn’t only well known for its glamorous wines, but in the past few years, for a few secret culinary delights as well. In this area of scenic beauty, this wine region is well worth a memorable romantic visit. The quaint former fishing village of Hermanus is also worth a visit, or to use as a base to visit this fine valley.
This region is beautiful year-round. Expect sunny and warm to hot days in the summer months, unique flowers in spring and whales frolicking in the bay and possibly rainy, crisper days in winter. All seasons, however, have their own unique charms, in this all-season destination. The annual whale festival which takes place in September each year is well worth pre-booking for.
