The launch of Ryk Neethling's exclusive new Wine took place at a VIP Event on the exquisite Val de Vie Wine and Polo Estate on Friday the 11th of February 2011.

The sophisticated black-tie affair, sponsored by BlackBerry, took place in the elegant surroundings of the Polo Club Lounge Bar and Restaurant on the picturesque Winelands estate. Glenfiddich, Tag Heuer and Val de Vie Wine ensured that the 'Whisky - Wine - Watches' theme was upheld. And VIPs, celebrities and friends of Ryk, gathered on the exquisite Polo Pavilion where they enjoyed a polo match on Val de Vie's pristine polo fields before the sun set behind the Simonsberg Mountains. Perfect weather and delicious cocktails were enjoyed with the classic jazz sounds of Haydn and The Hotshots in the background.
