Autumn’s on its way…

The leaves in the vineyards are beginning to turn all kinds of autumn shades, and yet we're still sweating through temperatures in excess of 30 degrees Celsius - cooler days must surely be just around the corner?

Paul took this shot from the Bloemendal Wine Estate, which is hosting a Champagne and Oyster Festival this weekend. The farm is set on the slopes of a tall hill, and from where we were standing we had the most exquisite 360-degree views of vineyards, vineyards and more vineyards... it was breathtaking.
