Region South Africa has more than 300-year history and is of great interest for winemakers around the world. Over the past two decades greatly increased the demand for South African wines that can compete in international markets. Landscape features, including mountain slopes, valleys and relatively flat plateau, allow winemakers to cultivate different varieties of grapes (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc) and thereby produce a wide range of wines. It has a Mediterranean climate, and most of the wine-growing regions are feeling the impact of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. In the nineteenth and twentieth century the vineyards of the southern continent hard hit by the epidemic of phylloxera, and the policy of apartheid, which took place before 1991, did not give an opportunity to develop viticulture locals. Today, South Africa is considered to be the ninth largest wine producer in the world, thanks to the wide variety of beverages are produced.
