'A map of the Boberg area as defined for the production of Wines of Origin. Depicting the salient features of the areas under viticulture situated in the Divisional Council areas of Paarl and Tulbagh.'
Boberg is a Wine of Origin designation reserved for fortified and liqueur wines, and Janice Ashby's 1973 map of the area celebrates winemaking itself. It unites the Paarl and Tulbagh districts along the upper Berg and Klein Berg rivers, from Saron and Wolseley south through Wellington to Franschhoek, which is why it overlaps the series separate Paarl and Tulbagh maps. Vineyards and co-operatives are set against shaded mountains, framed by grapevines, an arched cellar stacked with casks, workers rolling barrels and a panoramic vineyard scene. Its emphasis on cask ageing and the cellar master's art gives this unfamiliar regional name clear collecting appeal. This sheet comes from the reduced-format portfolio 6 Wine Maps of the Cape, issued about 1975.
