Celebrate - Wondeful Wine-Tasting with Peter & Jane in Stellenbosch, South Africa!



Our terrific former crewman, Peter Sandover, and his lovely wife, Jane, drove us to the Stellenbosch wine country and treated us to an overnight stay at the Oude Werf Hotel which is a historic downtown mansion filled with Victorian antiques and grouped collections of artwork. Our first wine-tasting stop was before dinner at the classic and comfortably styled Wijnhuis wine bar just a few feet from the hotel down a side street. With two white wines, a rose and three reds to taste, plus a cheese and meat board it was all very satisfying and the sauvignon blanc was our favorite! In the morning we drove to the Tokara Winery for more tasting and a great lunch with a beautiful view over the vineyards. Our favorite wine here was a reserve chardonnay. Also, we had time to purchase some special olive oil, visit a craft store and the charming botanical gardens at the University. Charlie and I had such a perfect time. An enormous thank you to Peter and Jane!

Charlie and Cathy
