Pop the cork

I celebrated my resignation last Friday with a wonderfully chilled bottle of Haute Cabriere Chardonnay/ Pinot Noir (www.cabriere.co.za), while the weekend birth of my nephew was welcomed with my favourite Alto Rouge (www.alto.co.za) and then a bubble fest of Pongracz (www.pongracz.co.za). I'm hoping the Lebanese grapes will match the Cape vines I have grown so close to.
