Deconstructing Sauvignon Blanc with Under the Influence - this thursday!

January 19, 2010

I’m hitting a wine tasting this Thursday at The Roundhouse with Under the Influence.

I’ve never been the biggest fan of Sauvignon Blanc but occasionally a good one comes along and slaps me in the face. My good friend The Wine Thief will be conducting the wine tasting and he tells me that there are some superalitve specimens in this line up of sav blancs.

Well I’m going to go along and see for myself because as you know - never trust a thief. - hopefully I’ll see some of you there.

Under the Influence presents another wine exploration leading up to White Wine Awareness Month! We explore Sauvignon Blanc, a grape that beautifully expresses its terroir. The tasting will uncover the flavours and aromas of Sauvignon Blanc in the different regions in South Africa and explore some of the top producers in the country. Producers to taste include Lismore, Paul Cluver, Graham Beck, Oak Valley, Iona, Southern Right, amongst others.

Venue: The Roundhouse Restaurant, Kloof Road, Camps Bay

Date and time: Thursday 21st January 6:30pm start

Cost R90 per person
