Autobiography by winemaker Beyers Truter, known as the 'Prince of Pinotage'. He began his career at Kanonkop in 1981. In 1991, when he won the Robert Mondavi Trophy at the International Wine and Spirit Competition for Best Winemaker in the World, it was the 1989 Kanonkop Pinotage that convinced the judges to present him with the award. He is the owner and cellar master of Beyerskloof in Stellenbosch. He bought the farm in 1988, produced and bottled the first Beyerskloof Pinotage in 1995, and a year later, it won the first of many Absa Top 10 Pinotage awards.
