Cheers! March Madness

March 2018

You never really need a reason to open a good bottle of wine, do you? ‘Because I want to’ always seems to work just fine. But this month there are three great reasons, should you need them…

- Suzy Brokensha

Cheers! March Madness

REASON # ONE 

Because it’s the Easter weekend on 30 March, and red wine and lamb – or red wine and chocolate, for that matter – are just such a good combo.

Talking about combinations, these are our three current favourite red blends:

Ataraxia Serenity Red Blend 2016, R190: deep black fruits and a small hint of vanilla… mmm

Luddite Saboteur Red Blend 2015, R255: spicy, dark and interesting, like a really good night out

Steenberg Stately Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz Blend 2015, R135: luxurious and deep

REASON # TWO

Because it’s St Patrick’s Day on 17 March, and ‘green wine’ is a thing.
