Back Story & Wine Information
Kaapzicht is a fourth-generation family-owned wine estate in Stellenbosch, South Africa, founded in 1946 by Major David Steytler.
It began as a general farm with mixed livestock and crops but has since evolved into a wine-focused business that the Steytler family continues to run.
The name “Kaapzicht” means “Cape view” and refers to the estate’s scenic view of Cape Town and Table Mountain.
Pairing
Seafood: Fresh oysters, grilled fish, shrimp scampi, scallops, and rich seafood like white crabmeat or lobster.
Spicy Food: The hint of sweetness and balancing acidity in the wine helps to counter the heat in spicy dishes, such as a warm Thai prawn curry.
White Meat & Poultry: Creamy chicken dishes, roasted turkey (making it a great Thanksgiving option), or pork.
Vegetables & Cheese: A salad of tomatoes, fresh basil and mozzarella, or a variety of soft and mild cheeses.
