Tasting a proper Joburg wine

May 23, 2008

I am currently in Johannesburg presenting wine tastings all over the place. I am seeing more than 200 people over the next ten days. Last night I presented the first in Linksfield Johannesburg.

You will not believe it. These guys are making wine here in Joburg. They have a fully equipped winery at their house. This year they made their second vintage: a Cabernet Sauvignon with grapes from Stellenbosch. They also make Grappa, Camenbert cheese and parma ham. Fascinating!

I will share the stories in more detail with you once I am back.
