Join Cavalli for a wonderful wine & dine evening
Cavalli Chenin Blanc 2021 has the same character and splendour as the 2020 vintage, with Complex aromatics of pear, white peach and lean yellow fruit, baked apple and raw honey on the nose. The palate has a weightless intensity with sublime fruit concentration, fresh acidity and a saline finish.
To understand the unique complexities required to truly elevate this varietal to world class status, one needs to understand its particular context. The Helderberg region lends itself to the maritime climate where Chenin Blanc excels, resulting in wines with distinct elegance.
It is therefore natural that Cavalli’s upcoming Winemaker’s dinner be devoted to the exploration of the Chenin Blanc varietal and Chenin Blanc driven wines. Guests will not only have the very exclusive opportunity to savour the nation-wide sold out 2020 Chenin Blanc, but also the newly released 2021 vintage. The quest to understand the full expression of Chenin blanc will guide everyone joining towards the equally awarded white blend, the ‘Cremello’ 2020, followed by the newly, barrel selected released 2021 white blend, a blend of Chenin blanc, Chardonnay, Verdelho and Viognier.
Malie, the captivating new face behind Cavalli’s winemaking will personally guide your tasting experience of each wine alongside perfectly paired dishes as executed by head chef, Lucas Carstens.
Save the date for the 26th of March.
A wonderful six course wine paired menu will be on offer for R950 pp, wines included.
