Wine Tasting Evening

South African Wine Tasting Dinner

In his annual South African Wine Report, highly regarded English wine journalist Tim Atkin MW has stated that "South Africa is currently the most exciting New World wine producing nation on the planet". There has been a remarkable transformation over the last few decades in the Cape and there is a real buzz in the air with a whole generation of new young wine makers making some wonderful wines from old vines. Stellenbosch and Constantia maybe the best known regions but areas such as Elgin and the Swartland are now producing wines that are every bit as interesting.

The tasting will be hosted by Alistair Gibson from Heritage Cellars, who lived in Cape Town for a number of years and visits this beautiful wine region regularly. Alistair will of just returned from 2 weeks travelling in the the Cape Wine lands prior's to this tasting and he will present a number of wines from his trip paired with a dinner consisting of a glass of sparkling wine on arrival followed 5 small plates, 'Tapas' style.
