After a 60-day ban on alcohol sales, most South African liquor outlets and wineries have been allowed to sell and distribute wines this week. It's a great relief to see so many brands trying their best to get their products out to their clients. Lately Iโ€™ve made a conscious decision to support local business in various sectors for our economy to keep going and I urge you to do the same. Exercise patience and please treat everyone with respect and dignity. - The past week has really made me question humanity, we really need to sanitize our hearts and minds. We need to identify the signs and hold ourselves accountable, but at the same time stay connected and support one another during this challenging time. - The easing of level 3 restriction has resulted in what is feared to be an increase in alcohol related trauma cases. There are many factors that influence that statement, and we can discuss this topic soon. As someone thatโ€™s fully aware of what the effects of alcohol abuse can do, I would like to urge you and request that you encourage those around you to drink responsibly. I continue to be overwhelmed by the wine industry's resilience and fortitude and would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for those tirelessly working behind the scenes. - We will get through this together, and we will come out stronger on the other side. โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž– โœ…Turn Post Notification on ๐Ÿ“ฃ โœ…Follow, like and comment โœ โœ… Enjoy responsibly.๐Ÿท๐Ÿ”ž

My heart goes out to everyone struggling during this very stressful period. Today, some grade 7 & 12 learners will return to school and I'm sure parents are anxious, my thoughts are with you and your family as we navigate through this. It's also the first of June 2020 which for South Africans means we finally get to buy alcohol after what seems like for a lifetime.

THE PAST / THE PRESENT THE DREAM / THE REALITY One THE PAST / THE PRESENT THE DREAM / THE REALITY One of the many reasons I appreciated this wine is its ability to evoke so many emotions, not only of places and people but the fond ones we sometimes tend to forget, Last night I opened this bottle of @reynekewines and was reminded of last year when I did the Business of Wine course and how I thought I wouldn't make it through. While I was going through the motions during that time I failed to see the highlights, like the amazing friendships I formed, the knowledge gained that I can apply to so many aspects of my life. Reynecke's approach to Biodynamic agriculture comes from a time when there was a spiritual understanding of life in general and farming in particular. "We try to never lose sight of this, putting people first, naming our cows instead of numbering them. Their minimal intervention to winemaking resonates with me as its kind of what I'm trying apply in life. #InMyGlass 2018 Organic Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon blend made of 85% Shiraz and 15 % Cabernet Sauvignon โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž– โœ…Turn Post Notification on ๐Ÿ“ฃ โœ…Follow, like and comment โœ โœ… Enjoy responsibly.๐Ÿท๐Ÿ”ž โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–โž–
