Hart’s Wine Dinner

The next wine dinner at Hart’s will be on Tuesday 30th June 2009

The latest in a series of tutored tastings by Tim Hart and Dominique Baduel
(Sommelier, Hambleton Hall)

“Some Favourite Wines from South Africa”
An opportunity to enjoy a tutored tasting of 8 top South African wines.

Tickets £55 per person, including tasting, dinner and wines.

South Africa is an especially interesting source of high qualtiy wines at present: recent currency fluctuations which have seen many European wines increase in price by some 20% have not affected the Rand.

For our selection we have chosen an excellent “Methode Champenoise”, two Chenin based whites and a delicious Sauvignon which shows the South African’s ability to capture some Old World minerality with some New World fruit.

For the reds we have three top Cabernets from Stellenbosch and a luscious Merlot from the Western Cape.
