VEUVE CLICQUOT ANNOUNCES EXCITING NEW EXTENDED POLO SERIES AT VAL DE VIE ESTATE  25 September 2019 – Renowned Champagne house Veuve 
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 countdown until the crowning of a new king of Jozi

I must say Netflix did not disappoint with the viewing that they brought to us in December. They are the gift that keeps on giving with the new season of Kings of Jozi which will be streamed from 27 January.  I am looking forward to the season for the following reasons: I want to see how they fit in Connie Ferguson as a lead character outside of her being the Masire mermaid. The death of Shona Ferguson who portrayed Simon Masire will obviously be showcased on the show, I can't wait to see how they will blend it in the storyline The rise of Mo Masire as the new king of Jozi The set of new characters that were teased in  the trailer  of the new season which includes Thapelo Mokoena as a detective hellbent on bringing down the Masire empire. Here are some of the fabulous red carpet looks from the launch of the second season held this past weekend.

Roundup: ‘Blood Legacy’

The latest release from Gambit Productions ‘Blood Legacy’ has just rightfully earned its spot on the list of the productions that have set the bar amongst this year’s releases with its stellar cast and quality production aesthetic that has had South Africa buzzing with excitement. You know those goosebumps you feel after watching a trailer for an upcoming Netflix or Showmax release, that is what I felt after I watched the trailer for Blood Legacy for the first time. The show which is set in Durban lived up to the standards that were set by the trailer. A great cast is the key ingredient The first aspect of the show that grabs your attention when you watch the first episode is the amazing casting.
