Clicquot and Val de Vie Estate, South Africa’s home of polo, are proud to announce important changes moving into the 2020 polo season. November 17th 2019 will herald the start of an exciting new series of Veuve Clicquot polo events to be held at the prestigious estate in the Cape Winelands, with a variety of experiences taking place up until April 2020. Pascal Asin, Managing Director Moët Hennessy Africa Middle East commented, “It gives Veuve Clicquot immense pleasure to take our decade-long involvement in South African polo to new heights. We are pleased to announce a change in our involvement from a single day event in the beginning of March to an entire summer-long series at Val de Vie Estate. The Veuve Clicquot Polo Series 2019/2020 will have 17 events ranging from chic Sunday Brunches to the exclusive Invitational in March 2020. Through this summer long series we hope to introduce a fresh version of polo to new guests as well as treat our loyal guests to more than one Veuve Clicquot Polo experience over the summer season.” Inspired by the evolution and increasing popularity of the game over the past decade, the Veuve Clicquot Polo Series 2019/2020 will include an extended season of Champagne Sunday brunch events, set to be a highlight on the Western Cape’s summer calendar. Indeed, polo has not only gathered momentum in South Africa, with more women attracted by the athleticism, skill and horsemanship demanded of the game, but African countries have too shown growing interest in the sport. “Polo has become one of the most exciting spectator sports on the Western Cape calendar and these events offer an entire summer platform, incorporating different lifestyle experiences. Drawn not only by the power and physical demands synonymous with this fast-paced sport, spectators are also invited to network, enjoy the popular international trend of elegant all-day brunches and outdoor entertainment with family and friends. It’s the best of both worlds,” concluded Ryk Neethling, Marketing Director and Shareholder of Val de Vie Estate.

The show has been getting viewers talking since it made its debut in 2021 and every season has delivered when it came to shade, drama and of course fabulous fashion. We are currently on episode 11 of the fourth season and there is much to dissect regarding the happenings of this season. 1. The ladies divided We left the group at the end of season 3 divided between Team Sorisha (Sorisha, Maria, Slee and Annie) and Team Nonku (Nonku & Jojo).
