We have been to quite a few vineyards over the years, but hardly did we ever come across a small scale winemaker like James who managed to bring so much passion and taste to the table 🍷🍶 From growing and production to fermentation and ageing. Never have we been so educated 📚 We particularly enjoyed the @alphaexcelsior 2018 Shiraz and 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon. Nevermind the excellent olives from their Orchard. #winemaker #winemakers #clanwilliam #cederberg #farmstead #homestead #farmhousestyle #farmlife #redwinelover #cabernet #shirazlover #shiraz #cabernetsauvignon #westerncapewines #winelands #winetastings #winetasting #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #smallscalefarming #westerncapetourism #cederbergtourism (at Alpha Excelsior Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqSeD1Ps8c_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In Tribute to Dave Hughes The South African wine industry is collectively mourning the loss of Dave Hughes today. I’m so thankful that he received his flowers while he was still with us, and that I was touched by his generosity. Dave was on hand to grace me with kind words when I was awarded the @veritas_awards Young Wine Writer of the year award in 2016. Dave was a seasoned winemaker, distiller, journalist, consultant, international wine and spirits judge and often wrote for @winelandmedia. Our hearts are with those who treasured him most, he left an indelible mark. Rest in peace Dave Hughes. #DaveHughes #TasteLetsSee #RIPDaveHughes #Wineland (at Paarl, Western Cape) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoYItmcKikP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
“The key component to working with anger is to literally feel your own heart while being angry... The moment you’re connected to your heart, your heart becomes sort of a filter and a purifier for that rage, and it might not be as loud or as boisterous, but it’s a much purer expression that your partner will most likely be able to metabolize. And not only that, it usually leads to what’s beneath which is most often anguish.”
