A biography of entrepreneur Tim Hamilton Russell, the founder of Hamilton Russell Vineyards. Despite restrictive laws, industry boycotts, and scepticism from the establishment, Russell pursued his vision to plant noble grape varietals in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley – a region few believed in – and proved that South Africa could produce world-class table wines. He died in 2013.

Bridgid Hamilton-Russell, Tim Hamilton Russell's daughter, is a strategist, writer, former advertising executive and founder of South Africa's first Montessori equipment company.
