Elgin
Together with the districts of Cape Agulhas, Overberg and Walker Bay, Elgin is part of South Africa’s Cape South Coast wine region. The district, which is about an hour away from Cape Town, is nestled in the ancient sandstone Hottentots Holland Mountains.
The district used to be famous as an apple-growing region. But today, Shiraz, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling are produced there due to the high altitude and cool climate.
