✉ Old Dutch Charm

Old Dutch blue and white tiles; and wine. (Spier, Stellenbosch Valley, August 2011)



TODAY'S TRAVEL PHOTO OF YESTERYEAR: 

An old Dutch tile backdrop for a wine bar in Spier's tasting room. The wonderful detail that goes into the reception spaces on these Stellenbosch wine farms, are characterful, each in their own way. Where some wine farms preserved the old Dutch Charm, also upholding age-long traditions in their wine-making, others have built platforms for new design and the Drama of New World Wines. Making the acquaintance of a wine in its context of home, is something pretty special. And in such breathtaking natural surroundings, good wine tastes even better.
