Nitida Official Spectator site for ABSA Cape Epic Prologue

What an honour and pleasure it was to host the annual Cape Epic Prologue on our little farm on Sunday.  

SPCA Woefie Wandel

We opened our doors, vineyards, arms and hearts to the annual SPCA Woefie Wandel for the first time and we couldn't be prouder.  2 and 4-legged participants had a wonderful day out as they attempted a 2km & 4km route on a gruelling trek through the upper part of the farm. 

la Fiesta del Vino - Harvest Festival

With so much anticipation with any festival, we had to think what would set us apart from the normal harvest activities, and true to our nature, we succeeded!  What do you get before the beautiful end-product that is wine?  Must...and yes, there are few things in life that one must do, but this is not the same, we used the grape must (grape juice during the fermentation process into wine) within recipes for our Roosterkoek and Salsa cooking demo with renowned chef Francois Ferreira.   

The third Concours Mondial du Sauvignon took place during March in Bordeaux, this competition was created to promote wines of this varietal and create worldwide public awareness to the comprehensive range of Sauvignon Blanc wines.
