DEFINE YOURSELF: INTRODUCING PANTENE PRO-V ENHANCED LAYERS
|
|
Layering has become an essential part of the modern woman’s hairstyle; a fantastically adaptable trend that will work for practically all hair types, regardless of colour, texture, condition or length. Layers create a modern, effortless, laid-back chic look – until the next time we wash our hair. If our layers behaved as brilliantly at home as they promise to when we leave the salon, none of us would have any complaints. But according to the experts at Pantene, the story isn’t quite that simple.

RENAISSANCE FOR FRANSCHHOEK’S LA BRI CELLAR AND ITS WINES
|
|
Owner Robin Hamilton, and his partner, Lindy Waterkeyn, describe La Bri as; ‘A small, quiet, and very beautiful place: just being here makes you want to do things better.’ The construction of a new 120-tonne boutique wine cellar and tasting room, tucked in, as it is, behind some mature oak trees, has not disturbed this tranquillity, but has been the necessary investment to give substance to the philosophy of doing things better. While conventional wisdom in the wine industry suggests that now is not the time to invest in bricks and mortar, three years ago Robin decided that to do justice to the potential quality of the estate’s grapes, a comprehensively different approach to winemaking was needed.

SEIDELBERG ESTATE RELEASES THEIR FOURTH PINK WINE

The theory that wine is subject to the whims of fashion has never been more convincingly illustrated than by the increasing international popularity, since the turn of the millennium, of pink wines of all hues and quality.

Recent figures show that the number of regular wine-drinkers who ‘drink pink’ has risen by over 60% in the last three years. More telling is the fact that even the French are taking to it in escalating numbers with rosé sales having recently overtaken those of white wines.
