About
Doused with all the privileges of a cool climate, the Walker Bay boasts some of the most sought-after Sauvignon Blanc vineyards. Nudged by the Bot River lagoon with vistas of the Atlantic Ocean, the vineyards enjoy cool daytime temperatures that drop even more at night. A beneficial diurnal range aids in even ripening and complexity, ushering the development of delicate fruit notes, fine tannin structure and bright acidity. Maritime winds encourage healthy vines that need minimal intervention.

Singles Day: all you need to know in 30 seconds flat

Singles' Day quickly gained popularity in China. And that makes sense: with a population of over a billion people, there are bound to be more than a few individuals who have been third-wheeling it all their lives.
Then Alibaba struck. The biggest online store in the world marketed the HECK out of it. They sold US$38.4 billion in goods on Singles' Day last year alone.
Which proves two things. Single people clearly have more money than couples, and Alibaba have the best marketing team ever.
In news closer to home, here are over 100 different deals that you can take advantage of if you're single. But also if you're not.
