		<description>Happy new year! 

I had to laugh at the juxtoposition of the name and picture of this wine. Presumably the marketing people at Virgin looked through some South African images, saw this picture and decided that it resembled a church....

A lot of SA farms have these structures for holding a bell.

Nothing to do with churches -- its known as a slave bell and was used to call time for the field workers in the old days. Haven indeed!!!

The &#039;small cooperative of farmers&#039; mentioned by Virgin as the winery is Bovlei, also used by Stormhoek.....</description>
