Feb. 19
It was the 6th day in South Africa.
I visited to MAN Family Wines, in Stellenbosch.
Man is a négociant winery built by Jose and Tyrel 20 years ago.
Our long-best seller Pangolin is produced here.
The cellar has moved and remodeled recently.
The cellar used to be one of top wineries in South Africa.
However, they didn’t work well a while ago.
Man bought the cellar and have been tring to the winery become top one.
Livland is the estate wine brand.
I am looking forward to tasting the top cuvee here near future.
Jose took me the top hills of vineyards.
Oh! What a great view of the wine land!
By the way, we made a small stop at Lingen, which is Jose ‘s private vineyard.
Jose has conversed vines from Cabernet Sauvignon to Mourvedre, recently.
After we came back to Jose’ house.
I organized a Temaki-Sushi party.
Sashimi is difficult to get here.
I ordered fresh fishes through Post Card Cafe.
The fish arrived early evening.
Oh!
What a big Yellow Tail!
Maguro and octopus was also very big.
They had hard skins.
I fought the fishes very hard.
It was a difficult battle.
Finally, fortunately, I won.
I made a very nice sushi table.
Many wine friends Joined in the party.
Everybody looked to enjoy the sushi deeply.
South Africa wines showed outstandingly great marriage with sushi today!
