THE WINE LIST

Situated as we are, in the STELLENBOSCH REGION

one of the premier wine-making regions of the world, our focus is on presenting a selection of the best wines from this area. Naturally, we also offer a smattering of other notable wines from the global vineyard, some common place, some scarce,

even rare and a few of the great benchmarks Hopefully something for everyone

CORKAGE POLICY –R45 per 750 ml - Being a Winelands Restaurant, we take great care in providing a varied

and balanced selection of wines. We trust that you will therefore understand that should you bring your own wine, corkage will be levied

PAIRING FOOD AND WINE

White wine is to be drunk with white meats and fish, red wine goes with beef, and sweet wines go with desserts, period, and to do it any other way is courting a visit from the Wine Police. – FALSE

But the truth is that until a couple decades ago this is how people decided what to drink with dinner. Thankfully, our minds have broadened. The current thinking is that since food can be every bit as complex as wine, the options for creating rich

pairings are staggering. And it cannot be stressed enough: a successful pairing is one that you find pleasing –

Remember - any combination you enjoy is a good combination!

Chenin Blanc...

The work horse and most planted varietal in South Africa. The versatility of the grape allows it to produce wines both dry and sweet, still and sparkling - the chalky, more limestone-based soils are

responsible for many of the lighter, crisper styles of the grape. Good Chenin Blanc’s are delightful wines, versatile with a wide range of food depending on their sweetness

Dirty Little Secret – Ken Forrester, Piekenierskloof 1460 We took a trip backwards in time to make a thoroughly modern wine. A wine that will age beautifully for at least the next ten years, a tribute hopefully to the age and concentration of the vines, as well as to low, very low interruptive wine-making, a natural wine in every sense and finally bottled totally naturally with no cold stabilization or fining and it is crystal clear, slightly golden in a good way, with a still lime green rim and how did I do that you ask? Well it's unfiltered, unfined just a Dirty Little Secret - naturally!

Pinotage... From Burgundian roots with New World charm. South Africa’s “national grape”, a cross between Pinot Noir and

Cinsaut [formally called Hermitage]. It is intensely individual and robust when oaked, and can show the cherry fruit of the Pinot and the earthiness of the Rhone

Burgundy / Pinot Noir… Classic wines from the grape hail from Burgundy. Pinot Noir has aromas of red fruit, summer pudding and baking

spices. As the wine matures –the flavours become more like the earth the wine comes from- mushrooms and truffles. It is wonderful for drinking with a myriad of foods

Gls Btl T Noble Late Harvest, Ken Forretser 2013 80 400 Named after Ken's wife Theresa. With multiple pickings we manage to maintain a perfect natural acid balance with a sweetness, creating a wine with exceptional finesse and deep concentration.

Meinert Semillon Straw Wine 2013 70 350

Fresh straw gold colour, enticing whiffs of honey, pineapple and pear. The secret of sweet wines is matching the sugar and acid so that the wine is not cloying; this one leaves a mouth-coating sweet tangy orange marmalade residue after swallowing De Trafford Straw Wine 2012 85 425 Attractive bright gold colour. Great intensity and sweetness – one of our richest vintages. Dried apricot and lemon skin, some flintiness, but mostly complex honey and treacle.

Hartenberg Riesling Noble Late Harvest 2010 70 350 Lime and tropical fruit notes interspersed with distinctive candied orange peel botrytis character. The palate follows through with an unctuous, yet uncloying, medium-bodied elegance and a riveting limy minerality on the finish
