Aaldering and Hidden Valley Wines new at CAPREO
The boutique wineries Aaldering and Hidden valley are true to the saying ‘small but mighty’. On a relatively small cultivation area, both have found their very own specialisation. Whilst Hidden Valley understands to create harmonious as well as simultaneously complex blends in the premium segment, Aaldering very successfully focuses on the different variations of the national grape variety Pinotage.
Aaldering
The Devon Valley in Stellenbosch offers the winery Aaldering unique microclimatic conditions and therefore the best environment to produce fantastic wines. The focus is mainly laid on the South African national vine Pinotage. Besides the well-known red wine, Pinotage is also vinified into white and rosé wine. We particularly recommend the red wine Lady M, an exclusive Pinotage that impresses with elegance and soft tannins. Just as exciting is the white Pinotage, a classic Blanc de Noir which entices with a full body and fruity notes.
Visitors can relax in the three on-site five-starred lodges that are located amidst the winery and offer a wonderful view of the valley. The lodges are spacious with 100 square metres. A personal tasting with the winemaker is included.

Hidden Valley
With a mere 15 hectares of cultivation area, Hidden Valley belongs to the boutique wineries of the cultivation region Stellenbosch. In keeping with a holistic approach to the environment, the farm was developed to its current glory. Although the winery is a state of the art, gravity-fed cellar, it is nestled into the side of the slope and intended to blend back into the environment in time. The building materials, namely stone, wood and glass were purposely selected to present a contemporary, yet functional structure. Vineyards, olive groves, almond orchards and natural vegetation, each surround the cellar, occupying an integral part of the farm’s ecosystem. . Today, functionality with aesthetics are perfectly combined at the winery. Clear lines, spacious rooms and a unique interplay of technology and nature define the winery and its wines. You should definitely give the Cabernet Sauvignon dominated red wine blend Hidden Gems 2013 a try: complex with harmonious yet noticeable tannins and notes of dark fruits. Next time you are in South Africa, pay a visit to the on-site restaurant Overture: grand delicacies are paired here with a stunning view.
