Choosing wine for someone else can be harder than it looks. Perhaps you don't know whether they prefer white or red, or whether they've tried South African wine before. This guide makes the choice easier. You'll find a comparison of ZEBRA WINES tasting sets and gift vouchers, followed by ideas for different people and occasions.
A bottle, a set or a voucher? A quick decision
If you know what the recipient likes, choose a bottle. If they enjoy discovering new wines, choose a tasting set. If you're unsure or short of time, a gift voucher lets them pick for themselves.

For beginners: Typical South African Varieties
If the recipient is new to South African wine, start with two grapes closely associated with the country. The Typical South African Varieties set contains three Chenin Blancs and three Pinotages from different ranges. The Chenin Blancs come from Nieuwe Haarlem, Seaward and 21 Gables; the Pinotages from Juno, Barista and 21 Gables.
It's a chance to compare the same grape across different styles and price points. Learn more in our guides to Chenin Blanc and Pinotage.
Availability is limited, with three sets currently in stock. If it sells out, consider the White set, our least expensive set, or a gift voucher for CZK 2,500.
For white wine lovers: the White tasting set
The White tasting set contains six white wines for CZK 1,703. It includes Ayama old-vine Chenin Blanc, Spier Seaward Sauvignon Blanc, Nieuwe Haarlem and the less familiar Grenache Blanc. Juno Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc complete the selection. Although the product address mentions rosé, the set contains only white wines.
For exploring wine regions: Franschhoek and Stellenbosch
What is Franschhoek? Franschhoek, meaning “French corner”, is a town 75 kilometres from Cape Town. It is one of South Africa's oldest towns and a well-known wine centre.
The Franschhoek set (CZK 2,842) brings together wines from three wineries: Boekenhoutskloof, including The Chocolate Block; La Bri, with Chardonnay, Merlot and Affinity; and Lynx, with Revolution and SMG.
The Stellenbosch set (CZK 3,182) focuses on Spier and Meerlust, including Rubicon and Spier MCC Brut Rosé. Our guide to South African wine regions is in preparation.
For wine enthusiasts: Cuvée Selection
The Cuvée Selection (CZK 3,140) includes six wines from five wineries: Meerlust Rubicon, The Chocolate Block, Spier Creative Block 2 and 3, Springfield Work of Time and Lynx Passion. These blends offer a look at the styles South African winemakers create.
For fans of one winery: Spier
The Spier set (CZK 2,774) lets the recipient compare Seaward Chardonnay and Shiraz alongside Creative Block 2, Creative Block 5, 21 Gables Cabernet Sauvignon and Spier Signature Method Cap Rosé. For more on the sparkling style, read our Cap Classique guide. Explore the winery's wines on the Spier Wines page.
