Modern wineries of South Africa

Published: 18 Nov 10
 

PHOTOGRAPHIC STUNNER

As far as coffee-table books go, Modern Wineries of South Africa is a must for any wine-lover’s home. Focusing on wine estates’ innovative architectural approach, the book’s 150 stunning images transport readers from their couches to the beautiful Cape winelands. Bold architecture is juxtaposed against dramatic winelands scenery, creating a visual feast that is complemented by architectural sketches and written descriptions of the cellars and tasting rooms.

 

Photographer Craig Fraser has captured the essence of each modern winery featured within the pages, including the likes of Delaire Graff, Steenberg and Waterkloof, and paging through the book, one is in awe at the artistic intent behind each building.

Modern Wineries of South Africa is available from leading bookstores and selected featured wine farms for R475.
