QUNNU GRILL MENU
Wine Cellars
Impressive collection The Saxon’s remarkable wine collection is the culmination of the Sommeliers’ wealth of experience and the outstanding wine
programme that we have established. The Sommeliers spend a great
deal of their time in the Cellars, testing and tasting the wide range of
proudly South African wines as well as classic international vintages
to ensure that the perfect wine is paired with every meal.
