Couldn’t work out where I was when I woke up this morning (at 5am - bloody jetlag!) then remembered it wasn’t here. Good to be back in my own bed but missing the vineyards, the views and the sun. Thank you @winesofsouthafricauk for a truly inspiring trip. And grateful thanks to all the producers who gave up time to see us during harvest.

Last lunch in South Africa - and a really brilliant one @pierneefalamotte including one of the most creative cheese plates I’ve come across with goat cheesecake and beet ‘glass’ - a gigantic beetroot crisp. Oxheart tomato, tomato sorbet and watermelon salad (with little deep-fried cheesy balls) also sublime. #guest.

Amazing day exploring some of South Africa’s oldest vineyards with @andremorgenthal of @oldvineproject. This is an old Chenin vineyard in Wellington Johan Kruger is using to make wine for @nakedwines and which has saved the vineyard from being grubbed up.

A rare veggie moment @spekenbone - spiced corn on the corn with macadamia nuts and a very good bar snack of roast peppers and homemade butter. Totally love the meat here, especially the lamb, but must admit it came as a bit of a relief!
