About

Between two mighty oceans on the southern tip of Africa lies the historic Saxenburg Wine Farm. Here memory and the seasons conspire with the cellarmaster's craft to produce unique wines of consistent and exceptional quality. For centuries wayfarers bound for the East Indies found hospitality and relief at the Fairest Cape. At Saxenburg we extend this tradition and invite you to visit our world.

Product Features
  • The Private Collection Chardonnay shows lovely citrus fruit, ripe pineapple flesh and some nutty characters on the nose. 
  • A full-bodied Chardonnay that ends with nice fresh acidity. 
  • Creamy tannins that contribute to taste.
  • It will complement most fish dishes or can be enjoyed with lighter meat dishes and creamy pasta.
  • Therefore the berries were smaller and the crop lower, but fortunately, we had enough irrigation water to ensure the vines did not enter severe water stress.
  • To ensure freshness, the grapes were picked slightly earlier and this is apparent in the beautiful elegance of this wine.
  • The small percentage of new oak used adds lovely texture and complexity but does not overpower the fruit at all.
  • Handpicked, fermented in French oak barrels for 12 months. 
  • 15% New French 500L Oak Barrels, balance in 300L and 225L French oak.
Product Specifications

We'd bet anything that the poncho was designed by a man

And you know how we know this?

Simple: it's simple. Cut a hole in a piece of fabric and call it a day simple.

The poncho is the clothing equivalent of the Japanese flag. If we were to list step-by-step instructions on how to make one yourself, there'd be no Step Two.

If you're wondering how this ties into today's deals, it doesn't. These are just the things we think about when we're tasked with writing blurbs but we're completely out of inspiration.
