		<description><![CDATA[Female harvesters and vineyard tenders at De Toren Private Cellar play an integral role in the estate’s world-class wines. The permanent vineyard and cellar team is sixty percent female, and women hold key senior management roles, too. It’s an unusual statistical skew for the wine industry, but for De Toren — which boldly embraces innovation — being an exception to the rule is all in a day’s work. De Toren, a boutique winery specialising in luxurious, world-class Bordeaux-style wines, is situated on the Polkadraai Hills in Stellenbosch, Cape Town. Over and above its exceptional female team, the estate also lays claim to other industry firsts, like being the first to plant and produce five-varietal Bordeaux-style blends in South Africa and the first to introduce a gravity-fed cellar. Acknowledging the finesse that women bring to the vineyard and production process is woven into the De Toren’s philosophy, but in Women’s Month, glasses are raised to celebrate their contribution. &#8220;It is such a pleasure to be associated with an estate where innovation on a scientific and practical level remains a topic of discussion. There is no lack of excitement at De Toren when it comes to producing wine in a quest for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sixty percent of the permanent vineyard and cellar team at De Toren Private Cellar is female. What’s more, the harvesters and vineyard tenders are female only. It’s an unusual statistical skew for the wine industry, but not an unusual approach for De Toren &#8211; the luxury estate boldly embraces innovation and extreme care in the name of producing rare and exceptional wines that are consistently among the world’s most awarded. An exception to the rule on several fronts, the Stellenbosch estate lays claim to many industry firsts. It was one of the first to plant and produce Bordeaux-style blends in South Africa; the first to introduce a gravity-fed cellar; and the first to achieve over 90 points from wine critics for a maiden vintage. Consider also, that De Toren’s vineyard rows are aligned to face the prevailing winds off False Bay and not at right angles to the wind as farmers are taught. By doing this, cooler air is channelled through the vineyard, lowering the temperature, extending the ripening period and keeping the vines free of disease. Like its wines, De Toren’s practices are clearly beyond the norm. The rationale behind female-only harvesters and vineyard tenders is primarily a practical [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to a UK study, four in ten women would rather spend time with their girl-friends than with their husbands, while close to half said they felt women were far better company than men! Both figures show that many, if not most women find the company of other women to be incomparably uplifting. To celebrate the feminine spirit, the Radisson Blu Le Vendome Hotel invites women of all ages to enjoy a sumptuous High Tea with a glass of complimentary bubbles at the premier seaside hotel nestled in Sea Point, Cape Town in honour of National Women’s Month. Celebrate Women’s Month with Radisson Blu Le Vendome Hotel as we toast to the mothers, sisters and daughters who’ve risen to the occasion and lifted South Africa up with their power, courage and determination. Enjoy the ambience of the #Add Restaurant &#38; Pool Bar or dine indoors for a cozier feel on a cooler day. The Radisson Blu Le Vendome Hotel’s Women’s Month offer includes High Tea with a glass of complimentary bubbles, platters range from R155 per person and must be ordered 24 hours in advance. Radisson Blu Le Vendome Hotel’s High Tea includes vegan, vegetarian, banting, Halal and Kosher options [...]]]></description>
