This is our journey to a Gourmet Life...




READ THIS:


Definition of "Gourmet":


Gourmet /ɡɔrˈmeɪ/ is a cultural ideal associated with the culinary arts of fine food and drink, or haute cuisine, which is characterised by refined, even elaborate preparations and presentations of aesthetically balanced meals of several contrasting, often quite rich courses. The term and its associated practices are usually used positively to describe people of refined taste and passion.


In no better words could we describe what we strive for at every opportunity.

Bergkelder - Fleur Du Cap

We first discover this great cellar back in 2012 after The Cheese Festival where we attended a Pinotage and Salt Pairing hosted by Fleur Du Cap.

The very next day we went on the Bergkelder Cellar Tour.  This was a turning point in our "Wine-Submerging Holiday".  Our guide was so informative and passionate that we wanted to learn more and more.  Loads of Ah-ha moments… The cellar is one of the biggest bottling plants for a few top-class wines from the Western Cape, Alto and Allesverloren, to name only a few.



We recently went back for a Wine and Salt pairing and left, once again, with boxes of goodies.  Chloe loves the Lazlo, which is their reserve wine.  We both enjoy their 'unfiltered' range.  At the cellar they sell other vineyards wine too, along with artisan salts and wine accessories…
