No, Jonathan, it wasn't three or four hours.  It was actually less than an hour and a half from when I ordered a case of wine from GETWINE, and had it delivered in my office.

One of the great things about living where I do, is that there are wine farms less than two kilometres away, including Groot Constantia, the oldest wine farm in the country. On late Tuesday afternoon we headed off to have a picnic there.

Wine tasting

Tags: ,
Down for the Cape Argus Cycle Tour, Barry and Yoland invited Jeremy and I to the Blaauklippen wine farm for a tasting, along with Pieter. The BVS Merlot 2001 was the best of the lot in my opinion. Unsatisfied, we headed to Avontuur, where I picked up two Cabernet Franc 2000s (my favourite from the tasting) and Barry picked up a case of their Vintners Red and some others.
