Chief Winemaker Bruce Jack
A Capetonian whose curiosity and palette has taken him the length and breadth of the globe. Bruce completed his undergrad in Political Science and Literature at UCT and then read his Masters in Literature at St Andrew’s in Scotland. His subsequent winemaking degree came from the Roseworthy Campus at the University of Adelaide, Australia. Bruce is a pioneer, and in many respects a maverick, and what he brings to winemaking is an articulate opinion about his greatest passion.

Now at home in Cape Town, Andrew’s passion for wine and writing is married on this blog.
REALM… An Urban Enquiry at Salon 91 Posted on September 15 2011 by
Gabrielle Raaf and Lorenzo Nassimbeni are exhibiting REALM..An Urban Enquiry at Salon 91 on Kloof Street, Cape Town, during September 2011.
The exhibition, entitled REALM…an urban enquiry, is a collaboration examining the essence of spatial conditions, both specific and abstract. I attended the opening of this exhibition and only got a chance to really appreciate the work once the bustling crowd had dissipated a bit. REALM is spectacular in its careful simplicity and beautifully housed in Salon 91. This is definitely worth appreciating.
Gabrielle Raaf is a fine artist and the originator of the 'Gaby Font' used on our Flagstone wine labels. Lorenzo Nassimbeni is an architect by trade with a gift for economy of line drawing.
