There was no wifi or signal in the bowels of the rew wine maturation cellar @TOKARAestate - but it allowed for conviviality & conversation. Superb food & wine pairings for the new vintage releases. Elgin sauv blanc and Director's Reserve white blend with scallops were sublime.

The genius in @tokara cellar who keeps Dionysus (& me) very happy. @wine_stuart guiding deliciousness from vineyard to bottle. Watch out for Elgin Reserve 2019 👌 (no more photos of me, promise!)

Unique among South African Cap Classique? Unique in the world of traditional method bubblies? @SilverthornMCC River Dragon from Old Vine Colombard, wild-fermented in old Acacia barrels is a charmer; full of fragrant, wild blossom & magic!

The best news about the sale of Plaisir de Merle to Michael & Rose Jordaan of Bartinney & the main farm at Backsberg to Koos Bekker of Babylonstoren, is that both remain in (highly capable) South African hands.

Karl Lagerfeld was such an icon for years. My favorite quip from him, “Darling, anyone who wears s tracksuit has simple given up”. – at Cape Town, South Africa
RIP Legendary Designer Karl Lagerfeld who has died aged 85. Did you know that Lagerfeld designed the front label for Dom Perignon Champagne?
