About
Was it not for these woolly little creatures we wouldn’t have a story to tell … the story of Hermanuspietersfontein, however, is fact, not fable. Overberg farmers of the early 1800s preferred their children to be schooled in Dutch, a forerunner of Afrikaans. They paid farm teacher Hermanus Pieters in sheep, which grazed at a spring under the Milkwood trees near the sea. In 1855, long after his passing, the village was founded in his honour, only for the postmaster in 1902 to shorten the name to Hermanus. 150 years later we relive the past by naming our cellar brand Hermanuspietersfontein and decided a sheep should tell our modern-day tales. In memory of Hermanus Pieters and the passion of the people of the 1800s, we committed our wine names and labels to be exclusively Afrikaans.

Tip of the Iceberg!
When put into a high-stakes environment, it's natural that some of us suffer from a case of cold feet. To be clear, we're not talking about the cold water submersion craze popularised by arctic swimmer, Wim Hof.
Having cold feet is that moment when you're about to do something big and exciting, and your inner confidence decides to abandon you, leaving you awkwardly standing there with an "Uh-oh, maybe not!" look on your face.
Imagine your colleague has set you up on a date. Just before meeting Prince Charming, you spot them from a distance and recognize them as your high school nemesis. Inevitably, cold feet kick in, and you sneak out before things can get awkward!
The only thing worse than a case of cold feet is probably cold hands?! Have you ever tried sending a text in the cold, early hours but your fingers just feel like slow, heavy ice blocks?! Luckily, you can now avoid that by getting today's deal on Toasty Unisex USB Heated Gloves!
