She is recently married so it could be something for their house as well. She also really likes cats. Any and all gift suggestions will be appreciated, thanks!


Answer
You could get her a copy of 'Chicken Soup for the Teacher's Soul' or Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul', which are books of little uplifting/thought provoking true stories about the respective subject.

Or perhaps something like a framed picture for her house, either of her and her husband or of a cat, or perhaps a cat-themed biscuit/cookie tin.

What are good brands of wine from South Africa for gift?




Dragoon


Going to South Africa, planning to buy a few bottle of wine. Any good brands?
Also, what other gift is good to bring from South Africa?
Thanks in advance



Answer
First check out which South African wines are already available in your country. It would be pointless to transport a bottle of wine that is easily available in larger retailer in your own country. The best known are probably KWV, Nederburg

A lot of the wine farms sell wines that are not stocked in the local bottle stores. So, many different varieties . . . and as many different tastes. Red, white, rose, dry, semi dry, semi sweet, sweet. Know the person for whom you are choosing a wine.

Take a tour to a winery, and taste the wines, and decide on a bottle. Or go to a large bottle store and ask for some help in deciding.

There are so many different wines in South Africa, difficult to decide on a few, especially since the year is also of importance.

A good bottle store in Cape Town is Steven Rom Liquors, Sea Point Galleria Centre 76 Regent Road Sea Point . There are many more all over South Africa.

Enjoy your trip.
