History records that some of the early Champagne Houses
originally started out as textile firms, offering a gift bottle to their
customers until demand for the bubbly was sufficient to stand on its own.
It is therefore rather appropriate that one of the most acclaimed names,
Kobus Dippenaar Haute Couture will be show-casing his ‘High Summer
Collection’ at this year’s affair. With almost 20 years as one of the top
ateliers, Kobus Dippenaar is no new-comer to the South
African fashion industry & will be launching internationally early in the
new year.
Enjoy your glass of Krone MCC bubbly as you meander through
an exhibition of vintage cars & cycles, or relax in the shade of the old
oak trees & fountains surrounding the cellar. Meet with friends up on the
tasting centre terrace to soak in the vineyards and the imposing mountain
range views. Those guests who are a little more energetic will be able to
participate in a gentle game or two of boules.
To complete the day of sensual splendor, you will also be
entitled to attend a sunset concert by Sterling EQ, South Africa's
sensational all-woman electric quartet. They will be playing unforgettable
arrangements of instrumental works and new songs from their debut album
Nova. This instrumental super-group captivates audiences from all walks
of life with their spectacular display of virtuosity and their energetic
stage presence which, together with their sleek appearance and stylish
modern instruments, makes for an unforgettable entertainment experience.
