Came home today from Europe. This was the first thing I saw at Cape Town International. I was so ashamed. Is this really what we want the first impression to be for tourists coming into our wonderful winelands??

If you happen to drive on the R304 or R44 coming into Stellenbosch or leaving, you will have seen this coming to life...

I've been trying to port my number from MTN to @Vodacom for 6 days now. Every day I get a sms that my number will be ported, every morning I get a message it has been cancelled. I've been to the Vodacom shop 6 times now and even they are fed up with the porting department. Help?

I wonder how this wine got through the board.. Labeled as both Muscat de Frontignan (White Muscadel) and Red Muscadel (totally different varieties in SA, both having its own clones and material), and then as "Single Vineyard"... makes one wonder

The Deeds Office is still closed due to lack of facemasks and gloves... What has the government been doing during this 5 week lockdown? #uselessgovernment

Heading to Switzerland second week of March. I will have 4 days to see some vineyards and wineries. Can anyone hook me up with some like minded guys or girls? Would love to see some awesome developments and actually talk to some people about viticulture. Much appreciated.

Quick question: Which wine grape variety (globally) needs the least amount of water to produce a decent crop? @alaindeloire @ak_viticulture @SJVGrapes @dylgrigg @WineFolly @grapetweets @jamiegoode @JancisRobinson @thegrapeprof @ownrooted @ucdavis @wineecon

Since @SABreweries took over distribution of #guinness beer last year, there has been no stock in the Western Cape since November? What's the deal here? Must've been a huge sales knock over the Christmas holidays and still is. #frustrated #needsomeguinness @GuinnessIreland

Is there someone in #france that works with #agricultural #GIS data that can contact me and help me, because contacting the #geological and #geospatial institutes in France is just as much a time waste as thinking our government will become free of corruption... @alaindeloire

There are amazing under-vine cultivators available for trellised vineyards, but does anyone know of some for bushvines? @dylgrigg @alaindeloire @ak_viticulture @SJVGrapes @thegrapeprof
