John Platter came to South Africa as a foreign correspondent, bureau chief for UPI, in the late 1970s. The Rand Daily Mail wine column he began after leaving fulltime journalism to farm in Franschhoek expanded into an annual wine guide which he and his wife Erica wrote and selfpublished. It was an instant success. Sold by the Platters after 20 years, it remains a best-seller. Their travel-wine-adventure story Africa Uncorked won numerous international laurels including the UK's most prestigious Glenfiddich Award.
