It is a tasting built around freshness, texture and depth, giving guests an opportunity to experience a different side of each wine.
- The experience features three Stellenzicht wines, each paired with a handcrafted chocolate praline. The tasting begins with Cap Classique, followed by Thunderstone Chardonnay and Acheulean Chardonnay. Each wine is matched with a chocolate praline selected to complement its particular character.
Rather than treating the chocolate as simply something sweet to enjoy alongside a glass of wine, the pairing is designed to bring out different qualities in each wine. Freshness, texture and depth come together across the three pairings, making the experience as much about discovering contrasts and connections as it is about enjoying a little chocolate.
For wine lovers who enjoy discovering how different flavours interact, this tasting experience offers a neat combination of Stellenzicht wines and handcrafted chocolate. Three wines, three pralines and three distinct pairings give the tasting a clear sense of progression, with each combination intended to reveal something different in the glass.
