Winemakers and chefs of the Durbanville Wine Valley have teamed up again for another roaring wine-and-dine collaboration and this time intent on showcasing the best of local flavours inspired by autumn.
The event follows on the inaugural series held last year, which was completely sold out.
Now, once again, chefs from the region’s top restaurants will come together in designing and hosting a trio of dinners that shine the spotlight on local excellence. Wines from the region are part of the experience having been paired with the dishes, and will be presented by winemakers themselves.
South Africa, Durbanville, 24 November 2021: A collaboration by leading Cape wineries has followed the footsteps of a South African icon, producing a Cabernet Sauvignon from an exceptional vineyard that no longer exists. Its grapes hail from the same region that produced the internationally celebrated 1966 GS Cabernet Sauvignon.
While the GS and newly unveiled The Master’s Vineyards are unrelated in many ways, both highlight the calibre of terroir of the Durbanville Wine Valley (DWV) - where wine has been made since the end of the 17th century. The 1966 GS Cabernet Sauvignon was described by Wine Spectator magazine as “the one true classic wine ever produced in South Africa”. In 2015, UK authority Jancis Robinson awarded it a perfect score of 20/20.
