The Table Bay’s Camissa Brasserie’s emphasis on creating a more personalised wine story has seen the restaurant acknowledged with the highest accolade in the prestigious Diners Club Winelist Awards 2016. The restaurant received a Diamond Award which is the highest possible accolade and is given to wine lists with a total score of 91% or higher.
Taking cognisance of the advice of the Diners Club Winelist awards’ convener Jean-Pierre Rossouw, who also publishes Platter’s Wine Guide and Rossouw’s Restaurants, both by Diners Club, The Table Bay’s food and beverage team paid special attention to the personality of the wines and how they complement Camissa Brasserie’s vibrant, distinctive menu.
We wanted to tell a more personalized wine story; one that better reflects our own story. We looked at relevance of the vintage wines on our menu and tied these up with appropriate wine descriptions that tell a more personal story about the wine. – Assistant Food and Beverage Manager Charl Theron.
The Winelist Awards are designed to recognise and celebrate the hard work and innovation of restaurateurs who are meticulous in their wine selection and pairing of food with wine. The awards – in their 22nd year – are a coveted symbol of distinction and see a great number of local restaurants vie for top honours.
