The Waterford Estate is worth visiting for many reasons. Its beautiful, Tuscan architecture is impressive, and the wine maker Kevin Arnold is one of the biggest names in the business, responsible for The Jem, the first South African wine really focused on the very best grapes and the very best techniques, produced in small quantities of amazing quality (and price!). But the most intriguing reason to visit is their chocolate and wine tastings. They have a chocolatier who has specifically designed three chocolates to be eaten with two of their reds and their sweet wine. The chocolates are exclusively for this purpose and cannot be found elsewhere. He has done an amazing job, so good in fact that you can’t actually tell where the taste of the wine finishes and the chocolate starts. It really does have to be tried to be believed!
