Barrels and Roots

**Wine Tasting, appetizers and affrogato dessert** *"In the midst of winter we found there was within us an Invincible Summer..."* Here in Durban we enjoy the mildest of winters from the perspective of no cold rains and fairly mild temperatures but we have been through a dark and difficult period on many fronts. Yet despite it all we have retained our resolve and clung to the Invincible Summer within. This evening is about celebrating that indefatigable spirit and what better way than over a glass of wine, good food and great conversation! We will be serving wines from three gorgeous wine farms and Nkanyiso (our sommelier) will be talking us through each wine's uniqueness: * Muratie * Joostenberg * Kloovenburg We will be serving finger foods and appetizers. For dessert we will be having African Root's famous Affrogato! **Dress code: Smart casual** *sincere thanks to Mark & Christine for the African Roots Coffee venue

"In the midst of winter we found there was within us an Invincible Summer..."

Here in Durban we enjoy the mildest of winters from the perspective of no cold rains and fairly mild temperatures but we have been through a dark and difficult period on many fronts.
Yet despite it all we have retained our resolve and clung to the Invincible Summer within.

This evening is about celebrating that indefatigable spirit and what better way than over a glass of wine, good food and great conversation!

We will be serving wines from three gorgeous wine farms and Nkanyiso (our sommelier) will be talking us through each wine's uniqueness:
* Muratie
* Joostenberg
* Kloovenburg

We will be serving finger foods and appetizers.

For dessert we will be having African Root's famous Affrogato!

Hello everyone! I hope you are all excited for the "Barrels & Roots" wine tasting :) If you are able to Uber please do so but there is ample safe parking on the street or you can get paid parking within the Pearls. I have thanked all the wine farms and African Roots but also want to thank Fry's (and Livekindly) for sponsoring the vegan food and snacks. The theme song for the evening is by Bongeziwe Mabandla and it is called "Masiziyekelele" https://open.spotify.com/track/1PzR1f3RbGI8z5JOxRv9TQ?si=513e162594b349c2 Please give it a listen :) Tonight, besides the three gorgeous wines, you will also be getting a taste of personal project that is close to my heart. Sagacity031 was borne out of African Roots Coffee
