Simonsig hits all the
right notes with a sizzling collaboration of blue blooded red wines and
rhythmic Blues, which will add a whole lot of soul to the Winelands during an
exclusive wine and dine evening at the estate’s signature restaurant, Cuvée on Friday, 30 July.
During this ‘one night
only’ R&B celebration, radiant red winemaker Debbie Thompson, past winner
of the Women Winemaker of the Year will share her latest cellar gems during an
intimate wine tasting experience, right there at the comfort of your own table.
The selected wines for the
evening include Debbie’s multi-awarded Redhill Pinotage and the estate’s
flagship Bordeaux-style red blend,Tiara. The wines will be complemented
by a nostalgic three course menu that will take the senses back into history
with Cuvée now embracing the revival of old fashioned charm with creative flair.
Stellenbosch Blues maestro
Gerald Clark, better known as the red headed lead singer of Delta Blue, gets
the toes tapping with a riveting, live performance straight from the banks of
the Mississippi. Gerald even plucks the Blues strings in Afrikaans, with hits
from his first Afrikaans Blues album, Sweepslag, also on the playlist
for the evening. He will be joined by Schalk Joubert, one of SA’s top bass
guitarists who recently launched his debut album Kayamandi.
Cuvée restaurant savours the spirit of
friendship in a homely yet stylish atmosphere, glowing with fireplaces and
creature comforts, which all add to the restaurant’s loyal
following.
This special evening of ‘R&B’ costs R250 per head and includes a complimentary
wine tasting of five Simonsig red wines, a three course dinner and live music.
