Okay, but spending almost a billion rand on sponsoring an international football team is the best way of getting visitors to our country? Bogles my mind how this got approved.

European room temperature differs from that in South Africa. Serving red wine a bit cooler, around 15-18°C, enhances its taste and balance. A slight chill makes a big difference.
