SLANGHOEK WINE VALLEY ENTICES VISITORS WITH ITS WINTER WINEMAKER WEEKEND “TRAVELLING DINNERS”
1 Jun, 2012 - 3 Jun, 2012
Excellent wine, glorious food and good company, not to mention some of the most picturesque surroundings and hospitality second to none. With its rugged beauty, this small valley is fast becoming a draw card to visitors for whom its gorgeous scenery, surrounding Winelands and family-run cellars are all very appealing.
Join us as we celebrate winter with a travelling dinner, a small intimate affair hosted by the quartet of Slanghoek Mountain Resort, Slanghoek Cellar, Jason’s Hill and Opstal Wines which will introduce you to the wines, their winemakers and the hospitality that they have become famous for.
Nestled in the magnificent Slanghoek Valley on the slopes of the Badsberg Conservancy you will find the Slanghoek Mountain Resort, a haven for those who appreciate spectacular views and the natural beauty which surrounds them.
Included in the weekend package is:
Accommodation at Slanghoek Mountain Resort, a haven for those who appreciate spectacular views and the natural beauty which surrounds it. This includes dinner on Friday evening, as well as breakfast on Saturday and Sunday morning.
For a fun-filled Saturday morning a visit to Slanghoek Cellar for their Blend & Bottle has been arranged affording visitors the opportunity to make their own wine in their own style, using a combination of three varieties.
