Bonang Matheba with The House of BNG Prestige Reserve Brut MCC

Media personality, business woman & original “Champopo Queen”, Bonang Matheba, caused a stir at the Sun Met 2020 on Saturday with the unveiling of the new limited Prestige Reserve from The House of BNG.

Queen B arrived at the Sun Met, Africa’s richest race day, in flamboyant style, flanked by two uniformed butlers carrying mysterious “treasures”, creating an event in itself. One of these mystery boxes, wrapped in black velvet, was installed in the Sun Met Lounge, generating much speculation and guess-work.

The second box was later presented on the podium to the winner of the Sun Met 2020, jockey MJ Byleveld and trainer Vaughn Marshall, along with the R3 million purse, and dramatically revealed as one of the first release bottles of The House of BNG’s Prestige Reserve - a sophisticated black bottle with gold detail, including a gold relief BNG logo.

Woolworths Senior Wine Buyer, Rebecca Constable, adds: “Our exclusive partnership with The House of BNG kicked off with resounding success in 2019, and we’re looking forward to another great launch with this new addition to the range. The luxury Prestige Reserve will be available at select Woolworths stores from mid-March 2020.”
