Tastings run daily here in the Bottelary Hills, with lunch from Wednesday to Sunday and a Vintner's Platter on Mondays and Tuesdays. Shiraz has been bottled here every vintage for more than half a century, and The Stork Shiraz is named after the wartime nickname of the late Ken Mackenzie, whose family still owns the farm.

Grape
Shiraz
Shiraz or Syrah? Same grape. The name on the label hints at the style, but there is no rule.
Grape
Cabernet Sauvignon
Stellenbosch grows close to a third of South Africa's Cabernet Sauvignon, cooled by afternoon breezes off False Bay.
Area
Bottelary
Bottelary has nothing to do with bottles: the name comes from the Dutch for a pantry, which is what these farms once were.
