An amazing Pinot Noir from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Fresh, herbaceous forest floor, a hint of cocoa and then lovely dark cherry. Great way to celebrate 366 years of South African wine making! #wine #tastingnotes #southafica

The Singaporeans are giving out free beer made from recycled toilet water at the COP29 climate summit. “At first their eyes widen,” one of the leaders of Singapore’s youth delegation said. “Then we reassure them. They’re usually coming back the next day for another.”
At COP29, ‘Sewage Beer’ Is Just Fine

Super Tuscan, develops quite extensively. Blackberry, star anise, smoke. A chameleon of a wine that keeps changing in the glass. #wine #tastingnotes #tuscany
