Cape Point Sauvignons have collected many accolades since their beginning in the late 1990s. Their Splattered Toad second label contributes a portion of the money from the sale of each bottle to the conservation of the endangered Western Leopard Toad, endemic to the area round the vineyards
Tractors and trailers
took us
high up the hill above Noordhoek beach
to Sauvignon blanc vineyards carved out of the stony hillside
where Cape Point Vineyards winemaker Duncan Savage
told us
about the farm and the way he grows the wines
Then down the hill again
to the tasting room, where Duncan led us
through a tasting of his wines
followed by an excellent light lunch
prepared by his wife
The day was organised by Tracy van Maaren and Sue Anderson
seen here with Duncan
