## Resource

When lockdown hit in 2020, Natasha Jacka turned her parents’ Cape Town garden into a vineyard—planting 1,400 vines herself, one by one. Four years later, her handcrafted wines, made from a tiny plot, stunned critics with their artisanal quality. Even her miniature horse Spirit got in on the fun. Now 32, she’s launched Alinea wines and turned a pandemic dream into a full-fledged winemaking career—all while still delivering bottles from her own backyard with a wink and a grin.
