We’ve been busy on (and off) Kalmoesfontein.

Here are some pictures (shot by Stephanie Veldman, link to more here) from Theo and Janita’s wedding on the farm in late May.

Meanwhile Adi cooked for The Great South African Cookbook which launches TODAY – since today is Madiba Day and the proceeds of this great book goes towards The Nelson Mandela Foundation.

Adi and Lars attended Imbibe Live in London with Caperitif, Jasper tasted his way through Spain and Portugal, Helena launched a Swartland wine onto a Stellenbosch wine list and we’ve had some rain, glorious rain.

There are also plans for the 2016 edition of Convivium in the pipeline, Sunday lunches coming up and a bit of a ‘if we can’t have a Swartland Revolution we’ll just throw our own early November party’ event, coming soon.

Also, we’ll be in Johannesburg with all our SIP friends on 11/12 November – keep an eye on the Swartland Independent Facebook page for details, coming soon!
