NEW SEASONAL PAIRINGS
Although they may be the oldest wine farm in Stellenbosch, Blaauwklippen Estate is without a doubt one of the leaders in the industry when it comes to hospitality offerings.
Moving away from the traditional concept of a Tasting Room, which is generally a single venue, the Tasting House takes on the approach of many rooms. Seasonal wine pairings, perfectly harmonized by Blaauwklippen’s winemaker, Narina Cloete together with the new chefs from Cucina di Giovanni. Moving away from a traditional pairing, visitors can look forward to ‘leisurely, mostly savoury’ pairings.
Options from the avant-garde wine and food pairing menu, include a pizza pairing, Meze pairing and 1682 pairing. For those looking for a sweeter pairing, the wine and macarons, or wine and chocolate pairings might be of interest, or try the cheesecake and wine pairing. In addition, the ‘house’ offers small plate meals, which allows for a truly leisurely experience.
