SEPTEMBER TASTING
NEW WAVE SOUTH AFRICA
Tuesday 3rd Sept 7.30pm-9.30pm
South African wine has no shortage of champions, many of whom argue that the country's output is possibly the most exciting on the planet right now.
To explain this in greater detail we have two highly talented guest speakers for the evening, Gottfried Mocke and Johan Reyneke who will run us through the delights of South African wines.
You will have the opportunity to taste the following wines Syrah and a Cabernet Sauvignon (very limited availability) from Boekenhoutskloof.
Organic Sauvignon Semillon, Chenin Blanc Organic & Biodynamic (allocation only) Cornerstone, (Cab Sauv, Cab Franc, Merlot and Reserve Red Syrah.
Boekenhoutskloof which was established in 1776 located in the furthest corner of the beautiful Franschhoek valley, the farms name means "ravine of the Boekenhout" which is an indigenous Cape Beech tree greatly prized for furniture making. The farm was restored in 1993 with new vineyard plantings of Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Grenache, Semillon and Viognier.
Reyneke Biodynamic and Organic wine-making, where the future lies right at the beginning. There's lots to be said for the way wine used to be made back when Reyneke first began in Uitzicht (which is the dutch for "view") 1863 there were no chemicals or technological advancements just the land and nature. Reyneke is perched over looking Stellenbosch and False Bay.
