If you’ve ever seen the movie ‘Jurassic Park’ you’ll probably be instantly reminded of it when you visit the Banghoek Valley in the heart of Stellenbosch. The Oldenburg Estate, and its singular terroir, best characterised by the Rondekop hill, is amongst the most strikingly beautiful of vineyards on the planet.
At one time Stellenbosch was a trailblazer for South Africa, before the likes of Swartland and Elgin caught up and stole the limelight. However, the region has recently been regaining its confidence and is now celebrating its preeminent place in South African wine culture as well as the manifold diversity and expression of its terroir. Demetri Walters MW will be interviewing Oldenburg’s owner, Adrian VanderSpuy, as well as winemaker, Nick Van Aarde, and we will be tasting the pre-release wines of Nic’s first vintage at Oldenburg; an estate reinvigorated with a sense of purpose within a region confident of its identity.
