Sought after by European aristocrats and a favorite of Napoleon Bonaparte, the sweet wines of Constantia in the Cape Colony were considered to be among the worldÕs best during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. During the first democratic elections in 1994, South Africa began to re-emerge onto the international wine scene. Tim James, an expert on South African wines, takes the reader on an information-packed tour of the region, showing us how and why the unique combination of terroir and climate, together with dramatic improvements in winemaking techniques, result in wines that are once again winning accolades. James describes important grape varieties and wine stylesÑfrom delicate sparkling, to rich fortified, and everything in betweenÑincluding the varietal blends that produce some of the finest Cape wines. Anchoring his narrative in a rich historical context, James discusses all the major wine regions, from Cederberg to Walker Bay, complete with profiles of more than 150 of the countryÕs finest producers.

Vader De Leeuw begon ruim veertig jaar geleden met het invoeren van Zuid-Afrikaanse wijn. Ondertussen is Kaapwijn Import De Leeuw onder de gedreven leiding van zoon Peter uitgegroeid tot een van de meest performante aankoopplatformen in België. Het huis vertegenwoordigt een fijne selectie van topdomeinen die niet alleen schitterende wijnen voortbrengen, maar evenzeer zelf de moeite van het ontdekken waard zijn. Toen Peter De Leeuw merkte dat steeds meer van zijn klanten op zoek gingen naar het verhaal achter wineries als Almenkerk, Badenhorst, De Toren, Lismore, Meerlust, Rijk's, Steenberg, Warwick, Waterford . en hun wijnmakers, besloot hij met topfotograaf Henk van Cauwenbergh de Cape Winelands te doorkruisen en alles wat Zuid- Afrikaanse topwijn zo uniek maakt, zorgvuldig in beeld vast te leggen. André Morgenthal, één van de meest toonaangevende wijnspecialisten van Zuid-Afrika en tevens grondlegger van het lokale wijntoerisme, zou hen vergezellen en zorgen voor bijpassende teksten. Dit alles maakt Cape Winelands The Art of Luxury Tasting niet alleen tot een feest voor het oog, maar meteen ook een hoogst originele leidraad voor een Zuid-Afrikaanse wijntrip!
