The poignant secret to Rust en Vrede’s success lies simply in consistency
By Dalene Fourie
Simon van der Stel granted the historic Bonterivier farm to Willem van der Wêreld in 1694, the farm that today houses the Rust en Vrede manor house, restaurant, vineyards and winery, against the slopes of the Helderberg. Imagine being called Willem van der Wêreld, alliterations aside. He must have been a scheming man. Mundane. In 1977, the Engelbrecht family bought the Rust en Vrede estate, located in the legendary golden triangle of Stellenbosch. The winery building was built in 1780, although it was the Engelbrecht family, originally led by Jannie Engelbrecht, in 1978, who produced the first vintage of what they called the modern era of Rust en Vrede wines.

REVIEW | The updated Hyundai Creta is one of the most frugal gas cars you can buy today
By Janine van der Post
The Creta was first released in 2020, and its futuristic appearance didn’t grab me at first. In fact, it brought me flashbacks to ‘Parktown Prawns’, a hideous die-hard cockroach grasshopper insect that gave me sleepless nights when I lived in Joburg for five years. I’m even pulling my face as I type this. But just like insects, I learned to live with it, and it’s not that I liked shrimp, but the Crete surely did. Fast forward to 2022, and Hyundai updated the compact SUV, and I have to say, it looks better than before. It’s still more styling forward, but that’s a direction the Korean automaker took quite some time ago. And while we thought their new cars were ahead of their time, they’re certainly adapting right now.
Is online flirting just innocent? What to do when your partner interacts too much on social networks
By Bonolo Sekudu
Is flirting harmless, especially when you are in a relationship or married? To some, it may sound innocent, but as marriage therapist Bakhe Dlamini once said, this is where all the problems of cheating and infidelity really begin. So is flirting a sin that leads to temptation? Or is it all fun? According to Psychology Today, flirting is a fundamental element in the human sexual repertoire, a traditional way of signaling “interest and attraction, not to mention mutual awareness. It’s a kind of silent language spoken by men and women all over the world. .”
