“The 2025 vintage is one of the great Cape vintages.”That’s the verdict from acclaimed critic Tim Atkin MW in an exclusive two-part interview presented in partnership with Private Clients by Old Mutual. He discusses South Africa’s rise on the global wine stage, the grape varieties and regions exciting him most, and the values that underpin excellence.
With his 2026 South Africa Special Report due on 1 September and public tasting tickets on sale from 1 August, Atkin also hints at a website relaunch that will make historic tasting notes more accessible than ever. A must-read for collectors, enthusiasts, and the simply curious.
