The General Smuts trophy, awarded annually for the champion young wine at the South African Young Wine Show, sits proudly atop the impressive awards shelf at the Riebeek Cellars tasting room. The winery was awarded the trophy for their superb Viognier bottled under their Kasteelberg label. 'We are honoured that the judges of the South African Wine Show have chosen to reward our efforts,' said Cellar Master Zakkie Bester. 'But it's only fitting,' he added with a characteristic twinkle in his eye, 'as General Jan Smuts was born in our valley, just a few kilometres away.'
