I've been a visitor to the Cederberg since 1982. I'm passionate about this area and its people, who live a fascinating lifestyle, many off the grid. I'm privileged to be called a friend, a virtual 'member of the family' by some of the people. This blog is my personal record of more than 35 years visiting this fantastic, rugged and mountainous region of the Western Cape, South Africa. The photo above shows the house that C Louis Leipoldt's family occupied. Now used as guest accommodation.

Franck Dangereux and David Nieuwoudt. What a combination.

The best of wines from Cederberg, Elim (Ghost Corner) and Longavi (Chile as in South America). And superb food - multiple course tastings. Also a great combination. My Cederberg Life pays tribute to these great guys and their people.











CHEERS TO A GREAT EVENING!
