For @Jancis_Robinson I reported on the catastrophic floods that happened two weeks ago and how it has affected the South African wine industry - and how you can help. jancisrobinson.com/articles/…
Two weeks have passed since a destructive storm affected a large part of the Western Cape. Fortunately, in Elgin, all vineyards have been spared. Here are a couple of images showing the power of the water, especially on the mountain, viewed from afar, from the top, and up close.
Thank you to @PaulCluverWines for this winter warmer recipe: Creamy Confit Garlic Orzo Pasta paired with their Estate Pinot Noir. ow.ly/MA9R50PlCSk

When top local wine personality Higgo Jacobs shows Elgin some love! Thank you Higgo! #elginmagic #elgin #southafrica #coolclimate #CoolClimateWines
When it is cold out.. and it is very, very cold here in Elgin. @LaBrune_SA's winemaker Nico Grobler dreams of summer by sipping on his Valley Pinot Noir Rosé.
