An Evening of Elegance: Raats Wine & Dine Evening at Grimaldi’s Umhlanga

If ever there was a night designed for indulgence, laughter, and exceptional pairings, it’s Friday, 28 March at Grimaldi’s Umhlanga.

For one night only, 25 lucky guests will have the chance to experience a truly exclusive wine pairing dinner, featuring the impeccable wines of Raats Family Wines and a five-course culinary journey like no other.

Wine lovers, foodies, and those who simply appreciate the finer things in life—this one’s for you. R650 per person grants you a front-row seat to an intimate dining experience, where each course is expertly paired with a Raats wine, selected to complement and enhance the flavors of the dish. Even better? You’ll be sitting with the winemaker himself, alongside Grimaldi’s very own Tim, diving into the stories, craft, and passion behind each pairing.

So, what’s on the menu? Get ready for a symphony of flavors:

🥂 Raats Original Unoaked Chenin 2023 meets Portuguese sardines with crispy squid heads, lemon butter, and zest—a fresh and zesty start.

🍷 Raats Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2023 pairs with mussels in a garlic, chili, and lime butter reduction, topped with toasted coconut flakes—a surprising, yet divine combination.

🥩 Raats Dolomite Cab Franc 2022 accompanies medium-rare sirloin with beetroot purée, parmesan & rosemary crust, and bone marrow jus—a dish that’s as bold as the wine itself.

🍖 Raats Family Cab Franc 2021 embraces medium-rare lamb rump, served with rosemary-infused baby potatoes and a rich lamb reduction—because some pairings are simply meant to be.

🍫 Raats Jasper Red Blend joins forces with 80% dark chocolate panna cotta, dark cherries, and burnt caramel—a decadent and unforgettable ending.

The setting? A single table. 25 guests. One incredible evening.
