Sandwiched between the country's majestic mountains and its cooling ocean coasts (the Atlantic to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, the Indian Ocean to its east), the Western Cape offers a wealth of winemaking riches. Regions here include the Breede River Valley, Cape South Coast, Coastal Region, Klein Karoo and Olifants River.
