The Stellenbosch region in South Africa is renowned for its exceptional terroir and rich winemaking heritage. Nestled in the picturesque Bottelary Hills, Hartenberg Wine Estate has been crafting exquisite wines since 1692, combining centuries of tradition with modern sustainable practices. Their wines beautifully reflect the distinctive character of the region. Just a short distance away, Villiera Wines is another family-run winery that has become a leading producer of award-winning Cap Classique and still wines. Founded in 1983 by cousins Jeff and Simon Grier, Villiera is committed to sustainability and social responsibility, maintaining a wildlife sanctuary on their estate.
At Salisterra, acclaimed Chef Ricardo Chaneton has created a menu that is expertly paired with the bold, flavourful wines of Stellenbosch. Chaneton’s culinary artistry complements the complexity of the regional wines, with each dish thoughtfully designed to highlight the unique characteristics of the pairings.
