Two of my favourite things – erm, make that three – are shiraz, charcuterie and, of course, Anthonij Rupert Wine Estate. Combine the three and you’ve got my idea of the perfect day out.
Save the date: Saturday 27 May, 12 – 5 pm. Got that? Good!
From On the Marque PR:
Don’t miss out on sampling some of SA’s finest Shiraz wines at this year’s Shiraz & Charcuterie at Anthonij Rupert Wyne in Franschhoek on Saturday, 27 May (12pm to 5pm). A selection of delicious charcuterie accompanying the Shiraz means the event is guaranteed to be a culinary match made in heaven. (I’ve been before, and this is the gospel truth.)
This is the perfect opportunity to taste Anthonij Rupert Wyne’s range of Shiraz wines, which include the Anthonij Rupert Syrah, the Cape of Good Hope Riebeeksrivier Shiraz and Protea Shiraz. The Protea Shiraz adds that extra allure with its eye-catching, indigenous floral-inspired bottle – ready for upcycling! Accompanying these superb wines will be a selection of our country’s finest Syrahs paired with yummilious charcuterie and other delicious artisanal fare. Participating producers, amongst others, include Rust en Vrede, Waterford, Mullineux & Leeu Family Wines, Hartenberg Wine Estate, Simonsig and Thelema. Royalty in the bottle right there, my friend!
Ideally suited to colder months, you can savour your glass of Shiraz with one of the hearty, winter-inspired dishes served on the day. Drawing inspiration from the Rhône Valley, food choices include a traditional French Onion Soup and homemade Saucisson served with braised Cannellini Beans. The popular Olive Bar with a selection of the finest artisanal olives to choose from adds that extra touch to the quintessence of a classic food and wine pairing taste sensation.
