Kick the cold weather
to the curb by revelling in some of South Africa’s finest Syrahs from leading cellars paired with an array of meaty
indulgencies at the annual Feast of Shiraz & Charcuterie at
Hartenberg Wine Estate on Saturday, 1 June 2013.
Carl Schultz,
celebrated winemaker at Hartenberg, widely regarded as one of South Africa’s oldest and leading producers of Shiraz for almost 40 years, has invited a select group of winemakers to
present their cellar gems at this indulgent day of Shiraz and Charcuterie. They will be joined by some of the best local
charcuterie masters, cheese makers and olive enthusiasts that will bring foods
to life to entice palates and complement this hardy varietal.
“Shiraz and charcuterie is a classic combination; the
robust flavours created when curing or smoking meat complements Shiraz superbly. This
festival is meant for everyone, whether you are a novice wanting to try something new or wine connoisseur on the
hunt for fresh discoveries,” says Carl, who celebrates his 20th harvest at Hartenberg this year and has played
an integral part in the estate’s Shiraz success story.
As the home of the
world’s No. 1 Shiraz, The Stork 2008 as declared by Syrah du Monde in 2012
there is no better place to experience this varietal first hand than at
Hartenberg Wine Estate.
