Positive Feedback from the Cape Wine Academy


We were delighted to receive a very positive mention from Marilyn Cooper, Cape Wine Master and CEO of the Cape Wine Academy. She visited us some weeks ago, and tasted what was available. The Academy, with branches all over the country and Southern Africa, offers accredited courses at all levels in wine making(Contact details below).

“On the way to Riebeek Kasteel, we stopped at Dragonridge Winery, a recommendation from Erica, and was blown away by Johan Simons’ approach to sustainability, conservation, natural winemaking and tasting the best South African Sangiovese, showing wonderful aging potential despite having no added sulphur. Met WWOOFersa new word for me - they are worker opportunties on organic farms and volunteers ranged from medical students, cooks to electrical engineers! If you are ever in the area, this is a very inspiring visit.”
