Tim Atkin Interview – September 2022

Ten years of South African Wine Reports

Just moments before the historic Tim Atkin 95+pt Wine tasting – held at the One&Only Hotel on 05 September 2022 – Han got the chance to sit down with Tim Atkin to reminisce about a full decade of Tim’s South African Wine Reports.

This video is a sort of highlights reel from a far longer conversation.The aim was to recap on some of Tim’s highlights from the year, and to discuss some of the things that excite him for the future of South African wine. Topics discussed in this episode include the state of South African wine in global markets, the future of Syrah in the country, and the need for vignerons to begin future-proofing against climate change.
I thoroughly recommend buying yourself a copy of this report, as it is one of the most in-depth resources on South African wine that is available to the public.
