South African wines are becoming a force to be reckoned with. The top wineries are now producing world-class wines with wonderful finesse and complexity and the range of wines that is being made here is astounding, including everything from chenin blanc to top-class pinot noir and Bordeaux-style blends.

The South African mixed case costs £83 and includes three bottles each of the following four wines.

Hutton Ridge Chenin Blanc 2007, Coastal Region: A superb example of modern winemaking, this Chenin shows wonderful, super-clean lifted aromatic fruit that is both crisp and very refreshing.

Jordan Sauvignon Blanc 2006, Stellenbosch: Delightfully complex sauvignon that shows classic ripe tropical fruit and green fig flavours combined with aromatic crisp gooseberry fruit - top-class wine.

Forge Mill Pinotage 2006, Coastal Region: Juicy pinotage with soft and approachable, vibrant red berry fruit and touches of mushroom and raspberry. Great for grilled meat or pasta.

Vergelegen Mill Race Merlot/Cabernet 2004, Stellenbosch: Classic Bordeaux blend from this top-class producer which shows wonderful, rich ripe fruit with subtle nuances of complex tobacco and blackcurrant. Soft and delicious!
