Western Cape · Themed wine trail

Discover the Franschhoek Cap Classique Route

The Franschhoek Cap Classique Route celebrates South Africa’s answer to Champagne. Cap Classique is made using the traditional method, where the wine undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle to create its fine bubbles.

Franschhoek’s French heritage makes it a fitting home for sparkling wine. Along this trail, you can compare different styles, from crisp Blanc de Blancs to rich vintage bubbles and delicate rosé. It is the perfect route for a celebration.

Why visit

  • A trail devoted entirely to Cap Classique sparkling wine
  • Bubbly tastings, pairings and cellar tours
  • The beautiful setting of the Franschhoek valley
  • Ideal for birthdays, anniversaries and special occasions
