Join us for a special single-evening tasting with cult Western Cape winemaker Rikus Neethling, to showcase his inaugural release of his single variety Semillon wines. This tasting is perfect for anyone who loves Semillon or who wants to learn more about this versatile grape variety.
The Tasting
Rikus Neethling has a passion for the Sémillon grape (now his signature variety), fuelled by a visit to Australia’s Hunter Valley, where he found many of the region’s vines were originally cuttings from South Africa. He studied the techniques used to produce the top Hunter Valley Sémillons - built to age for many decades - and brought the principals back to the Western Cape to launch his exciting new single variety Semillon project. Rikus will discuss his passion for the Sémillon grape and showcase his new limited production Sémillon cuvées; Robertsvleipad, Kruispad and Morningstar. With just a few hundred bottles of each wine available to the UK market, a unique chance to taste South Africa’s answer to Vat 1 Sémillon!
TASTING STRUCTURE AND FORMAT:
Rikus Neethling and Drinks Business Man of the Year Jimmy Smith will host this online tasting live.
Unable to commit on the evening? No problem! Anyone registered for this course will gain access to the video recordings of each tasting session, so you can always revisit any of these at anytime in the future - whether its because you missed participating in the live evening or if you want to revisit the presentation at a later date.
On the night, Rikus and Jimmy will also be tasting four wines that are representative of the styles discussed during that evening's tasting. A case of each wine covered throughout the tasting (4 bottles) will be available to order for anyone registered to attend the course, so if you'd like, you can also purchase and enjoy the wines with Jimmy (or at a later date). The cost for this 4 bottle case is £96. You will receive details on how to order the wine in your confirmation message. Please note purchasing the wines is optional.
PLEASE NOTE: As this is a virtual tasting, only one seat needs to be booked per household UNLESS individuals will be logging into the tasting series with different computers/tablets.
