Nestled in the picturesque mountains of the Hemel-en-Aarde valley lies our beautiful and bright wine estate, La Vierge. These Walker Bay vineyards of Hemel en Aarde Ridge are situated within close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. The maritime climate being more “temperate” in style, where parallel mountain ranges channel the southerly sea breezes through the appellation during the summer. These winds, in turn, bring regular sea mists and overcast conditions to the valley and with it more even temperatures.

As the weather turns colder, it's time to dust off the board games, get a fire going, and find out who's the most competitive person in your family.
There are so many great options to choose from:
Monopoly will test your relationships as you see your sweet son become a ruthless property mogul -- whose filial ties mean nothing when you have to pay rent when you land on his Clifton property.
30 Seconds is another beloved board game that tests one's general knowledge and the communication skills of your nearest and dearest. It can get very frustrating when you get paired with Granny, who doesn't know who Ed Sheeran is.
Why not take it back to the Stone Age of gaming with a classic like backgammon? And if that's too difficult, there's always the simple joy of Snakes & Ladders.
