Tim James: Drill, Baby, Drill – wine’s unlikely alliance with Big Oil
The wonderful Kogelberg Biosphere, home to 1 880 species of fynbos (and with a number of grape varieties as guests), asks on its website: “The Kogelberg and a changing climate: What can you do?” Lothian Vin…

Tim James: Eben Sadie and making wine in the vineyard
One of the old vineyards that supplies Palladius. Great wine is made in the vineyard, they say – essentially claiming little more than that you need good grapes for good wine, and the better your grapes the better your wine (as long as you don’t stuff it all up in the winery). Fair enough, but [...]

Tim James: Single-vine wines and collateral damage
The 1771 vine, Bree Street, Cape Town. Image: Cape Heritage Hotel. We can safely assume that few wine countries or regions have specific legislation about wines made from, um… single vines. In fact, I’d venture a guess that just one does. And that’s us, guys. It’s there in the latest updating of the Wine of […

Tim James: Looking at Platter’s 2026 and fearing for its future
For the first time in some 25 years, I recently bought a copy of what I still think of as just Platter, although (perhaps because?) it has changed its formal title a good few times since the John Platter South Afri…

Tim James: How South African wine coverage really works
When I suggested last week that perhaps some wine commentators – and others in the wine trade – tended to ignore older-established producers in favour of what is new, it felt more akin to a confession than the accusation a few pe…

Tim James: Five summer white wines under R170 – how do they stack up?
Summer is more or less here in Cape Town, with occasional backward glances to winter, and I believe that it’s been resident in Johannesburg, for example, for some time already. So it seemed opportune to t…

Tim James: The wines, scenic splendour and luxuries of Quoin Rock
The Quoin Rock manor house. The controversies and scandals once surrounding the Stellenbosch estate Quoin Rock – before the current regime I hastily add – are fun to recall, but not to be much indulged here. I …

Tim James: The writing and destruction of South Africa’s wine history
Apparently Henry Ford didn’t quite say that “history is bunk” – he blinked, and included “more or less”. He added that he was talking about tradition, which, he said, we don’t want: “We want to live in …

Tim James: Swartland wines – built to last or better young?
How well do the once-new-wave Swartland wines mature in bottle – both whites (mostly chenin or chenin-based) and reds (mostly syrah or syrah-based)? We’re starting to amass useful evidence, although the changing climate is posing new questions about the vintage aspect, and vintage is a crucial …

Tim James: The maverick who built Hemel-en-Aarde reconsidered
“If you seek his monument, look around you.” So runs the epitaph (in Latin) on architect Christopher Wren’s tomb in St Paul’s Cathedral in London. It could work well as an epitaph for Tim Hamilton Russell in the Hemel…
