Have you seen this stunner in Stellenbosch? You get your own vineyard, and your own olive grove without the massive ball-ache of maintaining a Distelle-level vine-producing farm. Just think of the kind of person you get to be when you own this place. Feel free to dabble in making your own boutique wine, take a jar of olives to your mates house when you visit. You’ll basically be the most refined person you know. Jislaaik, that’s lekker.
