Wine culture in Joburg just got a whole lot more accessible with South Africa's very own curated online wine store.
The Good Wine Shop brings the very best of the Cape winelands direct to the city. Stocking a wide collection of lesser known and experimental wines, The Good Wine Shop is a connoisseur's dream. Hand-sourced from 'behind the cellar door', their wines will have you dizzy with excitement. You can expect to find small-batch collections, limited-run cellar experiments, maverick ‘concoctions’ and plenty more here.
The Good Wine Shop distinguishes itself from supermarkets and liquor stores by offering customers a selection of unlikely bottles, many of them award-winning batches. Cultivating a country-wide wine community, their website features
blog articles on the best wines of the season, how to truly appreciate the flavour notes of your wine and helpful recipes to cook up sumptuous feasts paired with your wines. You can also sign up to their monthly newsletter for the latest in events and discounts.
Wine Regions
The Good Wine Shop supplies wines strictly from the Western Cape region. However, their range is diverse, offering samples from throughout the Cape. From historical
Stellenbosch to the up-and-coming areas of Swartland and Darling, there is a taste of Cape magic in every bottle. Of course, The Good Wine Shop partners with some of the most well reputed estates and wineries, including Waterford Estate, The Foundry Wine Collection, Raised by Wolves and Cape Rock Wines. Overall, wine lovers are spoiled for choice here. With that said, let's take a look into the 2020 summer collection, shall we?
Sunsets and Rosé
What's better than sipping a chilled glass of rosé on a warm summer's evening? Not much, we think. The experts at The Good Wine Shop recommend blush and orange wines for the
2020 summer wine season. Much lighter and lower in alcohol than winter wines, rosés and Blanc de Noirs provide refreshment without the unnecessary hangover. While the typical pink rosé is still on the bill for 2020, The Good Wine Shop are super excited about orange wines - wines made from white grapes with more time on the skins, which adds more colour to the wine, hence the orange hue.
Our top picks from their 2020 summer collection include the Artisan Collection "
Beulah" NV MCC by Snow Mountain - beautiful bubbles from traditional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes with secondary fermentation in the bottle and 24 months on the lees, have created a wonderful mousse of grapefruit and watermelon, overlaid with a savoury biscuit on the pallet, perfect for afternoon picnics or sundowners.
