South Africa - sustainable wine from around 800 wineries

There are around 800 wineries in South Africa and countless wine cellars to boot. Around 100,000 hectares of prime land is planted with vines, with Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Sémillon and Viognier dominating the white grape varieties and Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Pinotage, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc the red varieties. 950 million liters of wine have been produced each year since 2010, mostly sustainably, and in the case of wines labeled "Wine of Origin Scheme" ("W. O."), it is even possible to trace in detail which region, which district, which winery, and even which site the wine comes from.
