Stellenbosch is a beautiful town in South Africa. It is home to a top notch college, Stellenbosch University and is a typical college town with great restaurants and shops. A major draw to the area is the wine country surrounding Stellenbosch, which is equivalent to Napa Valley back home in California.
My african trails family took a a tour of 4 wineries in the area. We were taught how to check the color, smell and properly taste the wine.

My favorite winery was Fairview. The wines were fantastic and they even had a cheese sampling. The best was a wine called The Goatfather, a blend of three red wines, Yum!

I loved Stellenbosch so much that I looked into mosquito biology post docs at the university. Sadly, none were immediately available.
