Paarl

Paarl Roberts Rock
50 Kms NE of Cape Town, on the NI to the hinterland,

imposing KWV Headquarters

this is the base of KWV a coop that went semi-private.
In days past, this was the label that represented South African Wines, but things have changed.
despite Roodeberg and other, their newer labeld ROEBRT's Rock is EXCELLENT value for money.

Nederberg Wine Auctions

imposing estate of familiar landmark of a fine blender of wines for the masses, in my days of youth and folly.
the original Noble Late Harvest producers,
and of course, their CAB, Pinotage
and eminence amongst many

 Enjoyed a very good glass of Nederberg Pinotage the other night - was wondering what Paarl is like - Thanks for showing me. Nice Page.

 It's indeed a great place to visit, the scenery, the monument and the wines, it brings back good memories.

 Sounds worth visit... for wine and foods in a manor house; )
