Dates: <\/strong>18 February to 31 March 2024
Time: <\/strong>13:00 until late<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As South Africa\u2019s wine industry marks 365 years of wine production, the vintage heritage is being celebrated in due style at Cape Town\u2019s best address, The Table Bay Hotel, in the V&A Waterfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The milestone aligns with a diary entry on 2 February 1659 by Dutch first commander of Cape Town, Jan van Riebeeck that states, “Today, praise be to God, wine was made for the first time from Cape grapes.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ardiel Norodien, The Table Bay Hotel\u2019s food & beverage floor manager, has paired two wines from Boschendal, one of South Africa\u2019s oldest wine farms, with a locally sourced cheese-and-charcuterie board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Boschendal Nicolas is a characterful Shiraz-led blend, a signature variety for Boschendal, along with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot for classical structure, Malbec a beautiful deep colour and vibrant red fruit, Merlot to enhance the fruit profile and Cabernet Franc to add to the rich spiciness of the main component,\u201d Norodien said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who prefer a glass of white, the Boschendal 1685 Sauvignon Blanc, with an abundance of tropical fruit flavours with hints of lime, is sure to impress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cheese-and-charcuterie platter costs R280, and includes two glasses of red or white Boschendal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
