Our three big events for this month were absolutely amazing!
Firstly, our monthly Meet the Winemaker Dinner with Doolhof was a wonderful evening…made even more exciting by the fact that we were literally the first people to taste the new vintage wines (some not even labelled yet!)
Our ‘Trick or Treat’ movie night was such a hit with both parents and 65 very excited kids….we’re hoping to be able to offer another movie night or two during the summer.
Our Summer Wine Festival showcased over 40 wines from 11 very different estates. The weather was perfect, the wines were amazing and overall it was a fantastic success! Our next wine festival will be in Feb/March 2015.
MEET THE WINEMAKER DINNER
It’s only two weeks until our last ‘ Meet the Winemaker’ dinner of 2014…and we’re super excited that we have Kleine Zalze back on Wednesday 26th November.
Always an exciting estate with such a great variety of superb award winning wines.We’ll be showcasing predominantly their premium ranges – don’t miss it!

WINES & WINE SPECIALS
New wines on our shelves this month:
After tasting some fantastic wines at the wine festival there are a few new wines on our shelves:
Anura Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 – which won the title of SA’s BEST CABERNET SAUVIGNON at the 2014 Novare Terroir Awards, which at R112 a bottle is an absolute steal!
Nitida Riesling – definitely one on my highlights of the wine festival, it’s the perfect accompaniment to a summer meal, both savoury and sweet! R100 a bottle
With the ever increasing popularity of Chenin Blanc, M.A.N Chenin Blanc was a no-brainer to put on the shelves … to make the wine they use only use free-run juice (i.e. they don’t press the grape skins) It offers intense tropical flavours and at R62 a bottle is great value for easy summer drinking.
Louis Nel has released another stunning wine…Louis Nel Titanic Cabernet Sauvignon (the name? Louis says ‘It’s a big wine, doesn’t like ice and goes down easily”! Haha!) At the unbelievable price of R68 a bottle, this is one (like his Black Forest Red Blend) that you’ll buy by the case load!
As its summer, we’re making a big deal of bubblies:
Blaauwklippen Onse Sprankel – a light petillant rose (slightly bubbly) in a beautiful bottle makes it the perfect summer quaffer.
On special at a 10% discount for R82 per bottle!
We are offering a 10% discount on Miss Molly Brut (now R83), Miss Molly Brut Rose (now R94), Villiera Tradition Brut and Villiera Tradition Rose(both R99 a bottle) to give you a change to stock up for the festive season – while stocks last!
WE also have in stock the perfect Christmas Present for R724 a bottle : Veuve Cliquot Champagne in a decorative metal fridge box
