“The Swartland is a region for extreme winemaking – it is harsh and unforgiving but ultimately rewarding.”
Charles Back
The Spice Route Voyage
Posted in: Spice Route News
The Spice Route journey begins in the Swartland where Charl du Plessis steers the wine making process through tough yet ultimately rewarding terroir. The route then travels through to Paarl, to the brand new home of the Spice Route Tasting Room and Spice Route Restaurant, a place where guests are invited to join the adventure and share in the exploration of food and wine.
The tasting room offers visitors the choice of a standard tasting or the deluxe version which includes little tastes from the restaurant kitchen paired with each of the Spice Route wines.
The Spice Route restaurant explores the romance between spice, food and wine. The culinary voyage focuses on the Spice Route wines, with each meal carefully crafted and prepared to compliment them.
Chef Phillip Pretorius says, “We started this venture by first tasting each of the wines and then deciding on the appropriate food to be served with the wine. We systematically cut down the choices until we had the perfect match and then allowed our creativity to take over so that we could discover just how far it could take us.”
The Spice Route Restaurant is open Sunday to Thursday 11h00 until 18h00
Friday and Saturday 11h00 until 20h30
Every afternoon from 15h00 guests can enjoy tapas style snacks whilst admiring the beautiful view and sipping on Spice Route wines.
