Whether you’re looking for a driven destination on Heritage Day or a weekend escape to the canola laden hills of Bot River throughout September, Gabrielskloof has a bietjie vir almal.
For the entire month of September, the Gabriëlskloof Tasting Lounge will showcase homegrown flavours with a truly unique Mzansi Tapas Taster featuring familiar snack bites with a local twist, paired with four estate wines.
Think Snoek ‘n Patat croquettes with amasi foam and chakalaka; Bobotie poppers; Tangy Pickled Fish Tacos; and Biltong in Red Wine.
Gabrielskloof’s Mzansi Tapas Taster will also be available as small plate starters or sides to a main meal at their resident restaurant during Heritage Month.
The month-long food and wine celebration
will build up to a most memorable braai feast
on National Heritage Day
(24 September).
Situated within the stylish winery complex, a single, continuous table of unity will line the shaded veranda that surrounds the lush courtyard – the day’s grassy theatre of braai, starring Executive Chef Frans Groenewald.
Here, the family-friendly Long-table Heritage Braai Feast will put Chef Frans centre stage as he applies his gourmet touch to the grill.
Long-table Heritage Braai Feast | Menu
Expect braai heaven as seasonal fare is served up with genuine Gabriëlskloof hospitality – meat on the spit, snoek and mussels on the coals, garlic rolls, roosterkoek, pap-en-sous and of course, all the tasty trimmings that go with a good old South African braai.
And, as tradition demands, such a fantastic meal would be incomplete without a delectable sweet note brought by South African all-stars such as melktert and malva pudding.
“ What better day than
National Braai Day
to revel in the ultimate
South African pastime! ”
Add to the occasion the foot-stomping tunes of local muso Gian Groen who will perform live at the event, and the opportunity for young and old to frolic on the lawns, and any reason to stay away simply goes up in smoke.
This is the opportunity to savour impeccable estate wines, soak up country air and to make new friends through inimitable South African hospitality – over a plate of great food.
