“Goeie wyn het geen kranse nodig nie.” A beautiful Afrikaans adage that translates to “Good wine needs no advertising.” It is a fitting expression of South Africa’s rich wine culture, one that came alive over the weekend at Artcaffé Cellar, Rhapta Road, Nairobi.
As a wine enthusiast, I was particularly excited to experience wine tasting in its purest form: an opportunity to discover new flavours, learn about the history behind different varietals and, perhaps most importantly, appreciate the art of winemaking in the company of fellow wine lovers.
This was exactly what I found when I attended the Wines of South Africa (WoSA) three-day showcase, held from October 30 to November 1.
