Anyway. They have added the lighting strips.


Saw online that Sir Andy had discovered this place through Skyfall Ryan (some may know). The owner (Jacques) admitted to be a fan of Three Ships (has one of the first 400 Shiraz finish) and invited Andy who said he cannot wait to visit. Imagine being in that room....

They still going to add lighting strips behind the bottles. Grrr didn't get a shot of the SA section. Even has the 11yo Three Ships Shiraz. Also Ardbeg Blaaack and Dark Cove,
