Cape Town II - The Wedding (Part 3)

When one is wine tasting you must hold the stem of the glass so as not to heat the wine up with your hand. Slosh it around and if it leaves traces around the glass then it is said to have "legs". Inhale the aroma and when one imbibes it try and get as much air in it as possible so as to get the fullness of taste… or words to the effect if memory serves me! This was what we were told on the wine tour we did on the Thursday afternoon. We visited two wine farms and had a tour of Stellenbosch which is an attractive town near to Cape Town.

During the morning the intention was to go to the top of Table Mountain however we had a last minute change of plan which was probably a mistake as the winds would subsequently build up and prevent us from going to the summit for the rest of our stay.
