My visit to Haute Cabriere was nothing short of spectacular. Myself and friends were lucky to sit at an outside table while tasting wine, with an amazing view of the Franschhoek valley and surrounding mountains. The assistant serving wine was well-informed and gave a stellar breakdown of the wines and sparkling wines on offer. My favourite, of course, is the Haute Cabriere Unwooded Pinot Noir. It is unlike anything I have ever tasted - the front of the palate tasting the white wine undertones, and then developing on the palate with a taste that stops just before a typical red wine undertone. I left with a few bottles - and some Pierre Jourdan Brut Sauvage, the sparkling wine closest to "champagne" I have come across thus far. I would highly recommend a visit to this property.
