What happens when you meet an anchorman, a brewmaster, a young airhawk and a beautiful lady at Maropeng?

Well, you have a night to remember, that’s what. Because they are all vividly named wines, part of Nederburg’s Heritage Heroes collection, which will be showcased at this month’s wine-pairing evening at the Maropeng Boutique Hotel on Saturday, 25 April.

Cape Winemaster, Chris De Klerk will be pairing the special blends with a six-course gourmet meal.
