Despite everything going on in South Africa, I do love my home country. It’s truly a diverse country, not only the people and culture, but also the landscapes, fauna and flora. This too includes our wines. Our wine regions are so unique and diverse in terroir; which can vary anything from cool maritime to extreme harsh weather conditions. Here in […]
