No scoffing boxed wine now<br />
A few years ago, we’d have scoffed at the idea of a glass of wine from<br />
a box. Now we wouldn’t say no … not when it’s one of the premium<br />
wines introduced by Woolworths, in collaboration with some of<br />
SA’s leading wine brands. Not only are the wines up there with best,<br />
but there’s another terrific reason to stock up on these - the boxes<br />
contain 2L of wine and the price is the equivalent of two bottles.<br />
You do the math. Yip … 500ml for free! The wines, so far, include<br />
the long standing crowd favourite Pierre Jourdan Tranquille Blush (a<br />
delicate and fresh salmon pink blush with fragrant aromas of lively<br />
strawberry and raspberry with a hint of citrus fruits, it’s deliciously<br />
versatile and elegant and, box or not, is the epitome of elegance),<br />
Diemersal Sauvignon Blanc (an unwooded and crisp fresh wine that’s<br />
jam-packed with zesty lime flavours and a mouth-watering finish),<br />
Beyerskloof Pinotage (lightly wooded and fruit driven) and Kleine Zalze<br />
Chenin Blanc (delightfully approachable with tropical notes). Exclusive<br />
to Woolworths, prices start at R124.99. Details: www.woolworths.co.za.<br />

Onomo Hotel Durban’s new Topaz Restaurant & Skybar has arrived just in time for summer in our city of sizzle. The only<br />
rooftop bar of its kind in Durbs, the sophisticated space boasts astounding views of the Indian Ocean and city surrounds<br />
and is complemented by a mouth-watering food menu and array of expertly-mixed cocktails that showcase the flavours of<br />
Africa. By day, it’s a stellar sixth floor events venue with the Indian Ocean, Moses Mabhida and Kings Park stadia as part of<br />
its panorama, and by night, 360 degrees of sparking city lights form the backdrop, making Topaz Restaurant & Skybar the<br />
perfect relaxed ‘shebeen-chic’ environment to meet with friends or host glamorous events, indulge in a delicious meal and<br />
enjoy some fantastic local live music. The décor is sleek, stylish and modern, with warm wood and vibrant African prints<br />
offset by unique mood lighting and the gourmet menu is rooted in South African flavours – but references our continent’s<br />
myriad of culinary influences. Open to the public from Thursday to Saturday (4pm to 11pm) and 2pm to 11pm on Sundays,<br />
visitors can be assured of the highest COVID-19 sanitising and safety standards (certified by world leader in testing,<br />
inspection and certification services, Bureau Veritas). Details: www.onomohotel.com<br />
