For those of you enjoying following my adventures in South Africa, there’s a really great opportunity of sampling a brilliant selection of up to 50 wines from the Cape on Saturday 5th December at the Cape Food and Wine Tasting.

This annual event takes places between 11:30am and 4pm and this year is at the The Mecure Thames Lodge in Staines-upon-Thames, situated on the banks of the river Thames.

They will have over 50 wines to taste and there will also be a light selection of delicious snacks. There’s some real gems and rarities and some of these wines you are unlikely to see anywhere else on the UK.

You might get to sample the amazing Sauvignon Blanc from Hamilton Russell’s second stable, Ashbourne, which tasted on location last week!

I’ve already snapped up my ticket and if you’d like to do the same you can order online at Cape Food and Wine

Directions
Parking is available at the Riverside Car Park which is a 2 minute walk from the hotel and Staines station is a 10 min walk.

May be see you there
