Kanonkop, Beyerskloof, and Ernie Els (briefly)

 



Dan wanted to visit Kanonkop Estate for a tasting. We sat at a table and were brought their four Kadettes plus the estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage and Paul Sauer.

The tasting fee was 100R each which was waived as we bought some bottles; Joan bought  Paul Sauer, Krisie the Kadette Pinotage Rose, and Dan the Pinotage.



Then we headed to Beyerskloof for lunch where the Pinotage Burger was even better the the previous week with the bun toasted inside and crisper chips. Even the gratis garlic pizza bread was better.



This time we had a bottle of single vineyard Kriekbult Pinotage 2022.

Then to Ernie Els. We were greeted with a large glass of chilled rosé, but there were not doing any new tastings as there was a storm coming and tastings were taken outside. We could see the clouds rolling towards us across the valley, so we returned to the apartment and had a Boschendal MCC aperitif while Dan made a bolognaise sauce and garlic bread which we enjoyed with
