Cool sea air off Walker Bay and clay-rich soil do most of the work at Hamilton Russell Vineyards, a wine estate tucked behind Hermanus in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. The estate pours its focus entirely into chardonnay and pinot noir, both of which draw comparisons to Burgundy often enough that the comparison has stopped feeling like a stretch. It holds a spot on the World's 50 Best Vineyards list, which tells you roughly what kind of afternoon you're in for.
