HOW GREEN IS THIS VALLEY

The town of Franschoek (French Corner) is right smack in the middle of the beautiful "Wine Route" near Capetown. Here, lush vineyards flourish in the lower slopes of the Klein Karoo. The early settlers were French Huguenots who fled persecution in Europe in the 17th century and brought with them their expertise in winemaking. Hence the name.
