About
Our Mt Vernon wines will always be handcrafted and of the highest quality. Our uncompromising quality and attention to detail capture our core identity and beliefs as the Hooper family. We went to great lengths to select the perfect site to grow the grapes that would ultimately become our hand-crafted Mt Vernon wines. The Klapmuts region has a warmer climate and receives a cooling breeze from the south on many hot summer days. The winemaking process is done on location at our estate, enabling us to craft bespoke wines, such as our Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Making a cup of tea for someone is a more complicated process than you first think
Which way are we leaning: Rooibos or regular? Milk: yes or no? The standard sugar inquiry, a two-part question if the first answer is yes.
And if you have your black belt in tea-making, one final question concerning the tea bag: in or out?
How are you supposed to remember that all if you're making tea for, oh say, 3 people?
It doesn't concern today's deals at all, but we had to think about something while we waited for the kettle to boil.
