Press release:
It was the idea of collaboration that started Marvelous Wines. A partnership between renowned winemaker Adam Mason and popular chef Peter Tempelhoff, Marvelous Wines is now teaming up with another well-loved local brand to bring aspiring home cooks a chance to #getmarvelouswthnomu.
Food and wine lovers are encouraged to keep an eye out at their local Makro and Pick n Pay stores for special Marvelous Wine tubes, which include a paired spice mix from NOMU and a recipe suggestion from Peter. To celebrate the launch of this limited edition tube, which makes a perfect gift for those stocking up on Christmas presents, Marvelous Wines and NOMU are running a competition where one lucky winner will be given the opportunity to be ‘Chef for a Day’ at the beautiful Cellars-Hohenhort Hotel.
Says Tempelhoff, “We simply want to encourage people to have fun with this idea – open up a bottle of wine, whip up something tasty in the kitchen, invite a few friends over and share your photographs with us! Good food doesn’t have to be complicated – we aren’t looking for foams, gels and sous vide pork belly. We’re looking for dishes that make our mouths water – something we’d love to get stuck into after a long day at work.”
Commenting on the decision to partner with NOMU for this special release, winemaker at Marvelous Wines, Adam Mason says, “With Peter’s extensive culinary experience and my desire to follow food from garden to table, we feel that Marvelous Wines easily leads to marvelous food – and NOMU is the perfect brand to help us bring this competition idea to life. We are keen to see what delicious combinations our fans come up with during the month of October.”
Available in three promotional packs – combining the Marvelous Red with NoMU’s Spanish Rub, the Marvelous Blue with the NoMU Beef Rub and the Marvelous Yellow with the NoMU Oriental Rub – cooks can use Chef Peter’s recipe suggestions or their own creativity and inspiration to create a dish they feel pairs with the wine.
To enter:
Share a photograph of your completed dish on Instagram, showing the bottle of Marvelous Wine it should be enjoyed with, using the hashtag #getmarvelouswithnomu.
The winner will spend a day in the kitchen of the Greenhouse Restaurant at the Cellars-Hohenhort Hotel with Chef Peter as ‘Chef for a Day’. After a day of taste discovery and culinary enlightenment in their cutting edge kitchens, the winner and a partner will enjoy the fruits of their labours in the form of a 5-course spring menu with complimentary Yardstick and Marvelous Wines. Ensuring that the feasting doesn’t end there, the winner will also take home a generous hamper of NOMU products, to encourage culinary creativity at home. This grand prize is valued at over R5 000.
