Jeremy Clarkson on South African wine

Not even fit for filling up windscreen-washer bottles is how Jeremy Clarkson rates South African wine. Yes, the car critic turned wine critic while reviewing the new Jaguar convertible for his motoring column in The Sunday Times last week. He told readers, ‘The wine’s rubbish,’ and he didn’t stop there. He described their attempts to make wine as ‘hilarious’ and compared the cellar he visited to a nuclear power station, adding that the finished product tasted ‘pretty much like the stuff that comes from the outlet at Sellafield.’ But, in case you’re interested, he did love the Jag.
