Lourensford Estate, established in the year 1700 and once part of Willem Adriaan van der Stel's Vergelegen, is arguably one of the most beautiful wine estates in the world. Steeped in history and heritage, the estate also boasts an ultra-modern winery utilising technology unique in the Southern Hemisphere. The magnificent soils and diverse micro-climates create the ideal terroir for world-beating wines. Lourensford is fast-becoming one of the sought after wine estates in South Africa, with over 130 hectares of vines already planted. Other than 135 hectares of quality vineyards, the estate also produce apples, pears and plums in abundance.The property spans 4000 hectares of earth, bordered by the significant mountain ranges of the Helderberg and Hottentots Holland and 8 km from the ocean, all of which combine to give us the luxury of choice when it comes to picking the perfect terroir for planting. Lourensford has almost 200 hectares under fruit, all of which is packed in our very own packshed that also packs fruit from other producers in Southern Africa. Our beautiful mountain slopes are covered by our pine plantations, spanning approximately 900 hectares. We also cultivate trout to stock our exclusive fly-fishing club. People drive from afar to come and stock up on their coffee from the roastery on site and also enjoy the delicious meals on offer at our Millhouse Kitchen restaurant.

A RARE EVENING OF W**E & CULINARY EXCELLENCE

For the first time ever, both Lourensford Cellar master and red w**e maker will come together for one exceptional evening, presenting a selection of their most distinguished w**es — many of which have recently received top honours on the awards circuit.

Join us at Millhouse Kitchen on Wednesday, 28 October for an exclusive w**e dinner, prepared by chef Gustaaf Boshoff, celebrating the w**es, the craft and the people behind them.

The evening will take you through a collection of Lourensford’s finest expressions, from the celebrated Cuvée 117 Cap Classique 2015 to acclaimed Limited Release w**es, Kleipot Petite Syrah and the elegant Lourensford Port Chardonnay 2020.

Each w**e will be paired with a carefully considered dish — think soy-cured beef tartare, kingklip and prawns, slow-cooked lamb neck, venison Wellington, and a decadent cheese and dessert course — creating a journey through both vineyard and kitchen.

Throughout the evening, our w**emakers will share the stories behind the w**es, the vintages and the decisions that shape these exceptional bottles.

Wednesday, 28 October
Millhouse Kitchen, Lourensford Estate
R1 100 per person | W**es paired throughout
