Taking place Wednesday, 15 September, the Grapes, Gourmet
and Gallery Evening will feature signature wines from Cederberg.
The Cederberg wine farm is situated in the Wilderness area
within the Cape "fynbos" region, one of the worlds' six floral kingdoms.
Since 1893 the Nieuwoudt family has been connected with Cederberg and to
date there has been five generations of Nieuwoudts on the farm. Today,
David Nieuwoudt carries on the pioneering family tradition of making
innovative and award-winning wines. The Cederberg wines vary from the
Sauvignon Blanc with bold white asparagus and green fig flavours to the
Cabernet Sauvignon with intense dark mulberry and blackcurrant flavours.

The Harveys executive chef, will entice guests with an
exclusively designed five course meal to complement the wines and to
challenge the opinion and pallet of food and wine connoisseurs.
During the course of the evening guests can marvel at art
pieces by artist, Pierre Florenchie from the Patrice Boussekey Eclectic
Art Gallery. Born in France, Pierre now resides in Cape Town . His
abstract work reflects the mystery of the world and constitutes an attempt
to describe what cannot be explained. Pierre uses oil on canvas and sillk
to paint both realistic and abstract forms.
The evening is completed with a scrumptious dessert and an
auction of gifts donated by Cederberg. All funds raised through the
auction will be donated to StreetSmart South Africa, a conduit fundraising
initiative that contributes directly towards enabling street children to
live a viable life in society.
