Frankly if you can afford white truffles (currently selling at about 2500 euros per kilo) you probably already have a substantial cellar to pick from but just so you don’t in any way detract from the pleasure of eating your investment let me tell you what the Piedmontese do.

Many people say they don't like chardonnay but as anyone who has a taste for top white burgundy or other premium new world chardonnays will know it’s a spectacular food wine.

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. . . . #tomato #watermelon #salad #cheesecake #beetroot #cheeseplate #pierneefalamotte #franschhoek #sawine #latergramAmazing 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. . . . #vines #oldvines #vineyard #cheninblancA 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! . . . #corn #cornonthecob #peppers #vegetarian #plantbased #stellenboschReally love the Cape Dutch architecture in Stellenbosch. . . . #Stellenbosch #capedutch #eveninglight #travel #southafrica Follow on Instagram
