Hermanus is best known as one of the world’s great whale watching destinations — but it is also the gateway to some of South Africa’s most exciting wine country. Sitting at the mouth of the celebrated Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, the broader Hermanus area benefits from cool maritime air off Walker Bay, producing wines of real finesse and character. It is a region increasingly on the radar of serious wine lovers globally. At Winoship we stock wines from this stunning corner of the Cape, hand-selected for delivery across the UK.
