  Hemel-en-Aarde grape harvest

  15. feb – 15. apr · vanligvis

  The cool Hemel-en-Aarde valley just behind town picks later than most Cape wine areas, usually from late February into April, so cellar doors are busy with fresh crush and the pinot noir and chardonnay estates are at their liveliest. Kilde ↗
