The Winter Feast is the ultimate opportunity for Joburgers to explore the award-winning wines of Babylonstoren right on our doorstep. This seasonal food and wine-tasting event in Johannesburg takes place at Ground the Venue in Muldersdrift.
What to expect at The Winter Feast
Joburg’s passionate food and wine lovers come together for an all-day celebration of carefully paired fine vintages from Babylonstoren while the team at Ground the Venue elevate all they have got to offer through a three-course set menu.
A Babylonstoren sommelier or expert hosts a guided tasting of the wine farm’s best offering. This is a great opportunity to sharpen your wine knowledge in a casual setting. The farm is set at the foot of Simonsberg in the Franschhoek wine valley, and is well known for its unique wine-producing vessels, from amphorae clay pots to open cement fermenters and concrete eggs.
The dining experience kicks off with a selection of sharing gourmet bread and butter, an autumnal pumpkin brioche and warming French onion soup with Gruyere croutons.
For mains, choose between slow-cooked lamb confit on a bed of duck fat potatoes or pea and goat’s cheese risotto which is suited for vegetarians. End with a rich creme brulee and pistachio nut nougat.
