Rich Man Poor Man pairing
 
Rich Man Poor Man pairing


Pair wine like both a pauper and a prince at Durbanville Hills
23 May 2012  by Durbanville Hills Cellar
Surprise your senses by matching Durbanville Hills' wines with food that speak of both simplicity and sophistication. Join white-wine maker Gunther Kellerman for a 'Rich Man Poor Man' wine pairing at The Eatery at Durbanville Hills Wines on Thursday, June 21.
Food and wine pairings generally focus on the sumptuous, but when a tight budget calls for something less extravagant, combining it with a glass of your favourite wine can make it a lot more palatable. With Gunther' insights, discover the secrets of superior wine pairing when matching the wines of Durbanville Hills with convenience foods such as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and good old pepper steak pie. You will try the Sauvignon Blanc paired with both sushi and salted chips, and compare the taste of the Chardonnay when teamed up with both creamy Parmesan pasta and buttered popcorn.

After the wine and food pairing, dinner follows in The Eatery at Durbanville Hills with a choice of either its famous chicken pie or an ostrich burger. Coffee or tea and biscotti will be served afterwards.

Durbanville Hills' wines will be on sale during the evening.

Cost: R175 per person (includes welcome drink and wine pairing followed by dinner, coffee or tea and biscotti. There is also a gift bag to take home).

Space is very limited and booking is essential. Please contact Simone Brown on +27.215581300 or e-mail sibrown@durbanvillehills.co.za.
