You may have heard of Port and Starboard, the two killer whales responsible for killing a number of great white sharks around the Western Cape. They’ve been busy again.
I love tawny port. The flavours of sweet raisin, black tea and earth make we want to shout and dance around singing, “I’m Tawny, Tawny Tawny Tawny tonight.” I finished half a bottle last night in preparation for this column. It made me happy. But not as happy as I was the last time I drank it – and that’s the rub.
