SUMMARY:Cool Climate Strandveld with cellarmaster Conrad Vlok
DESCRIPTION:Where earth and ocean meets\, there lies the magic of Strandveld. \nStrandveld Vineyards is a beautiful wind-swept winery located 9km from the sea. Situated between Elim and Cape Agulhas\, it is the southernmost winery on the continent of Africa. This part of our fair Cape is characterised by cooling Atlantic winds\, billowing mist and below average temperatures. A unique combination of maritime climate\, alternating sites and diverse mineral rich soil types work together to create this unique terroir. \nThe story began in 2001\, when a group of enthusiastic wine lovers took to navigational maps\, in search for potential new vineyard sites. We think they might have been underestimating the blistering winds at the time\, but if they were more cautious\, the entire Agulhas Triangle of winegrowers probably would not be where they are today. The area under vine has grown substantially over the past 2 decades and many winemakers seeking grapes from this special place.  Strandveld now has 80ha under vine\, planted to varieties that can handle the harsh conditions and thrive in the mineral rich soils. \nConrad Vlok\, winemaker since 2004\, is a true man of the soil whose warm temperament and empathetic relationship with the environment is reflected in the nature of his wines. Being Strandveld’s first winemaker\, Conrad has a close affinity to the terroir\, vineyards and naturally\, the cellar. When he is not working in the vineyards or slaving away in the cellar blending art and science\, you can be sure to find him trekking in the veld or braving the wild Atlantic off Cape Agulhas in his sea kayak. \nJoin Conrad Vlok for a tutored tasting of the magnificent wines of Strandveld. \nWe’ll be tasting the following wines:\nSkaamgesiggie Pinot Noir Brut 2022\nPofadderbos Sauvignon Blanc 2023\nAdamastor White 2021\nAnders Sparrman Pinot Noir 2023\nGrenache Noir 2022\nSyrah 2021\nThe Navigator Rhone Red 2022 \nPlease book tickets in advance as this is a seated tasting.
