Attention Pieter Ferreira
Dear Peter, I was on the QM2 and met you and Anne< you suggested that I
go and see the amazing Caroline Rillema, Queen of Long street. I did and her cellar is as
good as I have ever seen. anywhere. I walked in and said, Pieter sent me.
She replied, so he should, I sell lots of his wine, so he owes me.
The conversation carried on in this vein for over and hour and I left richer in
knowledge but much poorer in the wallet.
This was the best experience I had in beautiful Cape Town, so thanks.
Please go to Google and look up The Wine Society, here in Sydney
I think it would be a good fit for you. If there is anything I can do to assist
you in Australia, please don’t hesitate to ask. Your wine tasting was excellent and its
always great to meet people with such a passion, about what they do and love.
Also an excellent Web site. I am glad to know that Graham is. as we say ” travelling OK’
The QM2 id doing Capetown to Sydney in February 2012, maybe you and
Michael could arrange a tour and a tasting at the vineyard before they
leave , I am sure you have thought of this, The Wine Society, was founded in
1946 and has 100,000+ members. Would you like me to send you our
current wine list?
Regards,
Doug Walker.
