WINES
The Beautiful Lady
Nederburg's gourmet
range, Heritage Heroes is charming some high-profile tastemakers in the UK.
The collection of five
individually named wines, each to honour a personality in Nederburg's history,
is represented on the wine menu of the newest restaurant of celebrity chef
Marco Pierre White, called Wheelers Rib Room & Oyster Bar and located at the
boutique Threadneedles Hotel in London.
White, also a popular
TV personality, was 33 when his restaurant was awarded three Michelin stars,
making him the youngest UK chef at the time to achieve such a distinction. (He
has since returned them to take the pressure off and spend more time with his
family.) He has trained chefs such as Gordon Ramsay and the Australian Curtis
Stone and is regarded by some as the godfather of modern cooking. He appeared
on MasterChef South Africa last year.
The Motorcycle Marvel
Roger Jones, a UK restaurateur
and international wine judge, writer and consultant, is well-known for his
acclaimed restaurant, The Harrow at Little Bedwyn in Wiltshire that boasts an
exceptional wine list. He encountered The Beautiful Lady, a Gewűrztraminer,
while in Germany at the recent 2015 ProWein exhibition. Writing for Harpers, he
called it a "beauty" and praised its "seamless scattering of
rose petals (and) Turkish delight nuances".
Heritage Heroes wines
have also been listed by London's luxury Guoman hotel group and the Park Plaza
Riverbank.
Apart from the
aromatic The Beautiful Lady, the other wines in the collection are two wooded
whites - The Anchorman Chenin Blanc and The Young Airhawk Sauvignon Blanc
- as well as a Rhône-style red, The Motorcycle Marvel and a Bordeaux
style red, The Brew Master.
The wines are
available from Nederburg itself, the Vinoteque in Stellenbosch and selected
specialty retailers in the major centres.
