What an absolute privilege to share a table with t

What an absolute privilege to share a table with the legendary author Errieda du Toit (@huiskok) and Chef Drikus (@drikus_brink ) at Clara’s Barn for an unforgettable heritage lunch come Sunday Roast inspired by SAAM/SHARE Chef Drikus masterfully brought to life recipes from Errieda’s cookbook, paying homage to the community booklets that have shaped South African cuisine for over a century. From the Marmite & Huguenot Tart to the perfect Malva Pudding, each dish was a nostalgic nod to our rich food culture, blending tradition and modern flair. A meal steeped in stories, memories, and incredible flavours. #EetSAAM #HeritageFlavours #SAAM #SouthAfricanFoodCulture #SundayLunchVibes

At my desk but my mind and soul is here.

As @jan_franschhoek opens its doors again, I can’t help but reflect on the unforgettable meal I had there last season. Every dish felt like a journey through South Africa’s rich culinary heritage, with a modern twist. Of course, the JAN White 2023, a staple in our own wine collection, was the ideal pairing throughout the evening. This blend, with its hints of mandarin, apricot, and subtle oak spice, perfectly complemented each course. It’s no wonder it recently scored 93 points in the Prescient Cape White Blend Report. I can’t wait to see what this season holds! To @janhendrikvanderwesthuizen @armandridgard and the team, all the best with season!

Join Stellenzicht in celebrating the launch of their newest addition, the Stellenzicht MCC, featuring stunning label artwork by the talented Catherine Holtzhausen. As a contemporary paper collage artist, Catherine’s intricate designs beautifully complement this exceptional sparkling wine, now part of Stellenzicht’s impressive range. I had the pleasure of attending their recent launch event and experiencing firsthand the excitement of this new release. The @stellenzicht Blanc de Blanc MCC is a testament to their dedication to quality and innovation in winemaking.

GRAND FINALE Weekend EARTHBOX comes full circle t

GRAND FINALE Weekend EARTHBOX comes full circle to close for good after a full 10 month life span of curiosity, wonder, community, celebration and transformation. The Grand Finale Weekend from Friday 30 August - Sunday 1 September is the last chance to experience EARTHBOX through nurture, story, adventure, sound and culinary delight. Be sure to book these tickets soon to avoid disappointment. “When we created EARTHBOX, the intention was always to make it a temporary space; a fleeting moment during which you could explore and experience the world underground. A rare glimpse into a world seldom seen. As we’ve moved through the winter and weighed up the decisions ahead, our reflections keep on bringing us back to our original intention – life is cyclical and endings are as essential a part of life on earth as beginnings. So, we have decided to close EARTHBOX. Our last day will be 1st September 2024 as our cycle comes to an end. Don’t miss your last chance to experience EARTHBOX and become part of our final memories.”

In the golden gleam of your embrace, I find
A tranquil whisper of the sun-dappled vine.
Chardonnay, your name rolls off the tongue,
A melody sung where stars are strung. Each sip, a soft kiss from summer’s own lips,
In glasses clinked on gentle evening dips.
Your essence, a dance of peach and pear,
Woven with oak’s embrace, an affair so rare. Under moonlit skies, our hearts entwine,
Tasting notes of apple, with a hint of divine.
You linger, a tender trace, a lover’s touch,
In the quiet moments, you offer so much. So here’s to you, my beloved wine,
Chardonnay, in your warmth, love’s defined.
Together, let’s age, gracefully and slow,
In the cellar of time, where true loves go. - a love letter about @longridgewineestate Clos du Ciel Chardonnay #wine #winelover #winetasting #Chardonnay #Chardonnaylove #drinkChardonnay #photooftheday #instagood

On a wet autumn afternoon, I found warmth and gast

On a wet autumn afternoon, I found warmth and gastronomic delight at Vergenoegd Löw, a historic estate in Stellenbosch dating back to 1696. Our journey began with a tour of the estate, immersing us in its rich heritage and tranquil landscapes. An in depth & innovative Indigenous tasting by @georgeyoung935 and his team. The culinary adventure continued at @Geuwels, where Chef Ryan Faasen’s sharing-style lunch left us marveling at each dish’s creativity and flavour. The first course was a medley of grilled squid with crushed cucumbers and venison tartare, each bite a burst of summer freshness and robust taste. The main course set featured hot smoked pork belly and the crispiest potatoes, each dish perfectly capturing the essence of hearty winter meals. At R325 per person, the meal offered unbeatable value, combining luxury with the comforting touch of home-cooked finessethat Bertus has become synonymous with. The estate itself provides a serene getaway, with options to stay in the lush Deluxe Lodge Rooms or the Vineyard Suites, each offering unique views and modern comforts. The on-site spa, gym, and Dylan Lewis sculptures add to the estate’s charm, making every visit memorable. Don’t miss the famous Indian Runner ducks, a charming and eco-friendly aspect of the farm’s sustainable practices. As a WWF Champion, Vergenoegd Löw is a testament to sustainable luxury and heritage conservation. Book now for a winter warmth retreat and experience the perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and culinary excellence at one of South Africa’s oldest working farms. #VergenoegdLöw #StellenboschEats #HeritageTravel #Stellenbosch #TravelBlogger #VisitStellenbosch #CapeTownLikes #LuxuryAccommodation
